  2. 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 ...

  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. For example, a binary string of eight bits (which ...

  4. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    A binary number may also refer to a rational number that has a finite representation in the binary numeral system, that is, the quotient of an integer by a power of two. The base-2 numeral system is a positional notation with a radix of 2. Each digit is referred to as a bit, or binary digit.

  5. 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 ...

  6. Translator (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    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 computer ...

  7. Compiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiler

    A program that rewrites object code back into the same type of object code while applying optimisations and transformations is a binary recompiler. Assemblers, which translate human readable assembly language to the machine code instructions executed by hardware, are not considered compilers.

  8. Source-to-source compiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-to-source_compiler

    t. e. A source-to-source translator, source-to-source compiler ( S2S compiler ), transcompiler, or transpiler [1] [2] [3] is a type of translator that takes the source code of a program written in a programming language as its input and produces an equivalent source code in the same or a different programming language.

  9. List of binary codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_binary_codes

    This is a list of some binary codes that are (or have been) used to represent text as a sequence of binary digits "0" and "1". Fixed-width binary codes use a set number of bits to represent each character in the text, while in variable-width binary codes, the number of bits may vary from character to character.
