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.

CPU cache
A CPU cache is a hardware cache used by the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer to reduce the average cost (time or energy) to access data from the main memory.

Cross-platform virtualization
Cross-platform virtualization is a form of computer virtualization that allows software compiled for a specific CPU and operating system to run unmodified on computers with different CPUs and/or operating systems, through a combination of dynamic binary translation and operating system call mapping.

Emulator
In computing, an emulator is hardware or software that enables one computer system (called the host) to behave like another computer system (called the guest).
New!!: PowerVM Lx86 and Emulator · See more »
Executable
In computing, executable code or an executable file or executable program, sometimes simply referred to as an executable or binary, causes a computer "to perform indicated tasks according to encoded instructions," as opposed to a data file that must be parsed by a program to be meaningful.

Execution (computing)
Execution in computer and software engineering is the process by which a computer or a virtual machine performs the instructions of a computer program.
