Abstract
TIBBIT is a method of performing a binary to binary translation of an application from one architecture (source) to another (target) while maintaining the timing behavior of the code, even when it depends upon the speed (e.g. clock rate) of the host processor. Translated applications are scheduled under a real-time operating system on the target system such that processor-speed dependent behavior is accounted for and held equivalent. This work extends the technique from the single-processor implementation to include translation from single- and multiprocessor sources to multiprocessor targets
