QEMU is a FAST! processor emulator using dynamic translation to achieve
good emulation speed, QEMU has two operating modes:

    * Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system
      (for example a PC), including a processor and various peripherals.
      It can be used to launch different Operating Systems without rebooting
      the PC or to debug system code.
    * User mode emulation (Linux host only). In this mode, QEMU can launch
      Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU. It can be used
      to launch the Wine Windows API emulator or to ease cross-compilation
      and cross-debugging.
