[http://wiki.qemu.org/Main_Page '''QEMU'''] is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_processing_unit processor] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emulator emulator] that relies on dynamic [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translation 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 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system operating systems]; it can thus be viewed as a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine_monitor#Classification 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 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware_Workstation VMware Workstation] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualBox VirtualBox]. QEMU can also be used purely for CPU emulation for user level processes, allowing applications compiled for one architecture to be run on another.
== Build QEMU with IGEP support ==
$ make install
Optionally you can download from [http://downloads.igep.es/QEMU/qemu-linaro.tar.gz here] the QEMU binaries.<br>
