  2. Compatibility mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_mode

    "Compatibility View" is a compatibility mode feature of the web browser Internet Explorer in version 8 and later. When active, Compatibility View forces IE to display the webpage in Quirks mode as if the page were being viewed in IE7. [1] [2] When compatibility view is not activated, IE is said to be running in native mode. In IE11, a user can ...

  3. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    JIT causes a slight to noticeable delay in the initial execution of an application, due to the time taken to load and compile the input code. Sometimes this delay is called "startup time delay" or "warm-up time". In general, the more optimization JIT performs, the better the code it will generate, but the initial delay will also increase.

  4. Compatibility layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_layer

    [10] [11] [12] touchHLE is a compatibility layer (referred to as a “high-level emulator”) for Windows and macOS made by Andrea "hikari_no_yume" (Sweden) in early 2023 to run legacy 32-bit iOS software. The compatibility layer was only able to run one software, Super Monkey Ball as of version 0.1.0.

  5. Copy-and-patch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copy-and-patch

    In computing, copy-and-patch compilation is a simple compiler technique intended for just-in-time compilation (JIT compilation) that uses pattern matching to match pre-generated templates to parts of an abstract syntax tree (AST) or bytecode stream, and emit corresponding pre-written machine code fragments that are then patched to insert memory addresses, register addresses, constants and ...

  6. Common Language Runtime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Language_Runtime

    The Common Language Runtime (CLR), the virtual machine component of Microsoft.NET Framework, manages the execution of .NET programs. Just-in-time compilation converts the managed code (compiled intermediate language code) into machine instructions which are then executed on the CPU of the computer. [1]

  7. Windows Runtime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Runtime

    Support for developing native games using C++/CX and DirectX has been added, by request from the game development industry. However, the Windows Phone XAML Framework is still based on the same Microsoft Silverlight framework, as in Windows Phone 7, for backward compatibility.

  8. Computer compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_compatibility

    Software compatibility can refer to the compatibility that a particular software has running on a particular CPU architecture such as Intel or PowerPC. [1] Software compatibility can also refer to ability for the software to run on a particular operating system. Very rarely is a compiled software compatible with multiple different CPU ...

  9. Dynamic recompilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_recompilation

    In computer science, dynamic recompilation is a feature of some emulators and virtual machines, where the system may recompile some part of a program during execution. By compiling during execution, the system can tailor the generated code to reflect the program's run-time environment, and potentially produce more efficient code by exploiting information that is not available to a traditional ...
