Excerpt: QEMU is a processor emulator that relies on dynamic binary translation to achieve a reasonable speed while being easy to port on new host CPU architectures. In conjunction with CPU emulation, it also provides a set of device models, allowing it to run a variety of unmodified guest operating systems; it can thus be viewed as a hosted virtual machine monitor. It also provides an accelerated mode for supporting a mixture of binary translation (for kernel code) and native execution (for user code), in the same fashion as VMware Workstation and VirtualBox. QEMU can also be used purely for CPU emulation for user level processes; in this mode of operation closely resembles Valgrind. One feature exclusive to QEMU is portability: The virtual machines can be run on any PC, even those where the user has only limited rights with no administrator access, realizing the "PC-on-a-USB-stick" concept. Similar applications (such as MojoPac) exist, but they currently require administrator rights to run, making them useless in areas such as public libraries, internet cafes, and so on. One school of thought interprets the name QEMU as "Quick Emulator". QEMU was written by Fabrice Bellard and is free software. Various parts are released under different GNU General Public License version 2-compatible licenses. These include the ...
