Secure Element Emulator

This project aims at emulating a secure element environment for debugging and rapid-prototyping of secure element applets. It is a fork of the open-source Java Card simulator jCardSim (original source code available here). Within our research we added extensions to emulate an application life-cycle that matches the life-cycle of applications on real smartcard chips.

The idea and concepts of the emulation environment are explained in
