- Target Program: The program being
simulated.
At many points, we will use the term ``target
program'' to mean ``execution of the target program''. The
meaning should be apparent from the context.
- Simulator: The program that simulates the target program.
The execution of the simulator is the called the simulation.
- Target Machine: The machine on which the target program
executes.
- Host Machine: The machine on which the simulator executes.
- Simulation Engine: The software that operates on the
target program to produce a simulator.
We assume that the processor
used in the target machine is the same as the processor in the
host machine.
We also assume that the target program executes in
a standalone fashion on the target
machine as one process per processor.
