Abstract

This study develops a formal representation of an emulation environment and defines an emulator in terms of a transformation process τ(x,y) equivalent to an environment Mxy created by imbedding the state image of a target machine y into a host machine x. A performance index ρxy of the emulator is developed to indicate its relative versatility.
