  2. Binary translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translation

    Dynamic binary translation (DBT) looks at a short sequence of code—typically on the order of a single basic block—then translates it and caches the resulting sequence. Code is only translated as it is discovered and when possible, and branch instructions are made to point to already translated and saved code ( memoization ).

  3. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    A binary code represents text, computer processor instructions, or any other data using a two-symbol system. The two-symbol system used is often "0" and "1" from the binary number system . The binary code assigns a pattern of binary digits, also known as bits , to each character, instruction, etc.

  4. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    A binary number is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system or binary numeral system, a method of mathematical expression which uses only two symbols: typically "0" and "1" . The base-2 numeral system is a positional notation with a radix of 2 .

  5. Rosetta (software) - Wikipedia

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

    Type. 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.

  6. Binary decoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_decoder

    A demultiplexer is a 1-of-n binary decoder that is used to route a data bit to one of its n outputs while all other outputs remain inactive. Code translator. Code translators differ from 1-of-n decoders in that multiple output bits may be active at the same time.

  7. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    In computing and electronic systems, binary-coded decimal (BCD) is a class of binary encodings of decimal numbers where each digit is represented by a fixed number of bits, usually four or eight. Sometimes, special bit patterns are used for a sign or other indications (e.g. error or overflow).

  8. Translator (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translator_(computing)

    t. e. A translator or programming language processor is a computer program that converts the programming instructions written in human convenient form into machine language codes that the computers understand and process. It is a generic term that can refer to a compiler, assembler, or interpreter —anything that converts code from one ...

  9. Machine code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_code

    Machine code is by definition the lowest level of programming detail visible to the programmer, but internally many processors use microcode or optimize and transform machine code instructions into sequences of micro-ops. Microcode and micro-ops are not generally considered to be machine code; except on some machines, the user cannot write ...

  10. Binary recompiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_recompiler

    A binary recompiler is a compiler that takes executable binary files as input, analyzes their structure, applies transformations and optimizations, and outputs new optimized executable binaries.

  11. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text. More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters. These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP) or is not 8-bit clean.
