  2. QEMU - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QEMU

    QEMU (Quick Emulator [ 3]) is a free and open-source emulator. It emulates a computer's processor through dynamic binary translation and provides a set of different hardware and device models for the machine, enabling it to run a variety of guest operating systems. It can interoperate with Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) to run virtual ...

  3. Binary translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translation

    Binary translation. In computing, binary translation is a form of binary recompilation where sequences of instructions are translated from a source instruction set to the target instruction set. In some cases such as instruction set simulation, the target instruction set may be the same as the source instruction set, providing testing and ...

  4. Braille ASCII - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_ASCII

    Braille ASCII. Braille ASCII (or more formally The North American Braille ASCII Code, also known as SimBraille) is a subset of the ASCII character set which uses 64 of the printable ASCII characters to represent all possible dot combinations in six-dot braille. It was developed around 1969 and, despite originally being known as North American ...

    In computer programming, a magic number is any of the following: A unique value with unexplained meaning or multiple occurrences which could (preferably) be replaced with a named constant. A constant numerical or text value used to identify a file format or protocol (for files, see List of file signatures)

  6. FX!32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FX!32

    FX!32. FX!32 is a software emulator program that allows Win32 programs built for the Intel x86 instruction set to execute on DEC Alpha -based systems running Windows NT. Released in 1996, FX!32 was developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) to support their Alpha microprocessors. At the time, there was a belief that RISC -based ...

    Unicode, formally The Unicode Standard, [ note 1] is a text encoding standard maintained by the Unicode Consortium designed to support the use of text in all of the world's writing systems that can be digitized. Version 15.1 of the standard [ A] defines 149 813 characters [ 3] and 161 scripts used in various ordinary, literary, academic, and ...

  8. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    e. In computing, just-in-time ( JIT) compilation (also dynamic translation or run-time compilations) [ 1] is compilation (of computer code) during execution of a program (at run time) rather than before execution. [ 2] This may consist of source code translation but is more commonly bytecode translation to machine code, which is then executed ...

  9. Rosetta (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_(software)

    Binary translation, emulation. Rosetta is a dynamic binary translator developed by Apple Inc. for macOS, an application compatibility layer between different instruction set architectures. It enables a transition to newer hardware, by automatically translating software. The name is a reference to the Rosetta Stone, the artifact which enabled ...
