You might ask: “Why not just run a 64-bit VM in compatibility mode?” The answer lies in and memory density .
Specifically used to bridge the gap for 32-bit apps on modern 64-bit hardware. Picture-in-Picture (PiP):
while (1) opcode = memory[pc++]; switch(opcode) case 0x01: // MOV reg, imm case 0x02: // ADD case 0x03: // XOR ...
: Use older software on newer 64-bit-only hardware.
