Differenence between Real system and Emulator?
There is a major difference between a real system and emulator. A real system has its own physical existence. On the other hand, an emulator only acts as a real system. It doesn’t have its own physical existence. It’s just a software program which runs on different system to provide a compatible environment.
For example: An ios device has its own separate specification and its own mechanism to process tasks which a windows or any other operating system can’t understand.
In this case, emulators are used. They enable a system to run different system applications on it. The processing speed of emulators are slow than the real system because the real system that has to be run on the emulator and the host system on which emulator is running both have different physical specification. Emulator works as a translator in between these two environments. Due to different instructions sets of both real and host system, you face speed issue while using emulators.
How does Emulators work?
We already talked about the translation work of emulator in this post. An emulator has to do lots of work to run a different OS app. Like if you want to run an ios app on your windows pc, then you would need an emulator for it.
In technical terms, emulator is a software/tool that acts as device. It fulfills all the hardware requirements which are needed to run an app on different OS environment. It holds all the abilities of a real hardware system.
The development of an emulator is very difficult because the inclusion of the real hardware system’s abilities into a software is pretty much harder. This is the reason, you won’t find any emulator for modern system like Xbox. Their system’s complexity is the reason behind it.
