  2. Binary translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translation

    A translator using static binary translation aims to convert all of the code of an executable file into code that runs on the target architecture without having to run the code first, as is done in dynamic binary translation. This is very difficult to do correctly, since not all the code can be discovered by the translator.

  3. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    A binary coderepresents text, computer processor instructions, or any other datausing 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 stringof eight bits (which is ...

  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 for representing numbers that uses only two symbols for the natural numbers: typically "0" ( zero) and "1" ( one ). A binary number may also refer to a rational number that has a finite representation in the binary numeral system, that is, the ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. UTF-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    UTF-8. UTF-8 is a variable-length character encoding standard used for electronic communication. Defined by the Unicode Standard, the name is derived from Unicode Transformation Format – 8-bit. [ 1] UTF-8 is capable of encoding all 1,112,064 [ a] valid Unicode code points using one to four one- byte (8-bit) code units.

  7. Machine code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_code

    In computer programming, machine code is computer code consisting of machine language instructions, which are used to control a computer's central processing unit (CPU). For conventional binary computers machine code is "the binary representation of a computer program which is actually read and interpreted by the computer.

  8. 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 ...

  9. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, [1] and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest value as the sign to indicate whether the binary number is positive or negative; when the most significant bit is 1 the number is signed as negative and when the most ...
