Abstract
A method and system provides a special purpose or embedded system developer with the ability to confirm the correct operation of a computer program designed to operate on a target system whose processing and storage capabilities may be more austere than the host system upon which the computer program is designed and tested. A key feature of the method and the system enables a developer to execute and debug an application program on a host system while observing and testing the operation of the program through the input/output of the target system. Another feature of the method and system is an application loader that dynamically sizes and, as necessary, reconfigures the available memory to permit multiple applications to reside simultaneously on the target system by resolving addresses in the target system at the time an application of interest is downloaded to the target system.
