Guest Editors' Introduction: Welcome to the Opportunities of Binary Translation

Published: 01 March 2000 Publication History

Abstract

A new processor architecture poses significant financial risk to hardware and software developers alike, so both have a vested interest in easily porting code from one processor to another. Binary translation offers solutions for automatically converting executable code to run on new architectures without recompiling the source code
