Abstract

The architecture of the DEC PDP-10 prohibits using standard methods to construct a virtual PDP-10 on it. However, by simulating all executive-mode instructions and in rare cases user-mode instructions, a “hybrid” virtual machine may be constructed. Building on such a simulator and an operating system with hierarchical process relationships, the author has easily constructed a prototype virtual machine.
