Scaling Emulation And Software Preservation Infrastructure Emulation 3 4 5 6 Logos taken from project/product websites for: CCS64, MAME, DOSBOX, vmware, VirtualBox, MESS, WinUAE, QEMU, Mini vMac, SheepShaver, Hatari Does Emulation = Virtualization?
Yes No An emulated Emulated computing hardware exists environment can entirely in safely be called a software; “virtual machine” virtualization relies (opposite of on at least some “physical machine”) physical hardware (e.g. a CPU)
