Abstract
Simplification of run-time program translation for emulating complex processor pipelines is disclosed. Dynamic pipeline states are moved into a cache lookup process leaving a code translation process to deal only with static pipeline states. With dynamic pipeline states removed from the translation process, translation becomes more simple and efficient like that of a non-pipelined processor.
