Hello I wonder what the commonly used nomenclature is within the field of emulators for a) The software that constitutes the emulator itself b) The software that runs on top of the emulator I hoped to find a single noun, so I don't have to use the rather long sentences as above everywhere I want to refer to one of the two softwares. Greetings Flo
I should note that I alreay use the terms host and target. Host for the hardware system on which the emulator runs, target for the system beeing emulated by the emulator.

It's an implementation of the Win32 and API and related things. But why don't you just call the emulator an emulator? Daniel
