The file gamsm.exe is a process that belongs to software Java 2 Runtime environment (JRE). This software provides the libraries, the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), and other components to run applets and applications written in the Java programming language. The Java Virtual Machine is a program that executes the Java bytecode, providing a runtime environment in which the bytecodes can be executed and enabling the user to determine the root-cause debugging information for every software error. In addition to JVM, two key technologies that are part of JRE are the Java Plug-in and the Java WebStart. Java WebStart is official Java download from Sun Microsystems that deploys standalone application over a network, which includes seamless version updating for globally distributed applications and greater control of JVM memory allocation. The Java Plug-in technology is used to establish a connection between popular browsers and the Java platform.
