Safeguarding open access to binary-translation.
Open-source, multi-ISA binary-translation.
The Open Binary-Translation Alliance is committed to open-source development and maintenance of a high-performance framework for binary translation covering multiple instruction set architectures.
Its technical initiative also encompass related technologies for binary compatibility.
As a non-profit association, it relies on its members for both direction and funding.
Through its own activities and an active academic outreach, the alliance strives to push the boundaries of binary translation technology.
Shaping the future of binary compatibility
Open Binary-Translation Alliance
Binary translation is a foundational technology in modern computing, acting as a bridge between the need for standardized platforms for software development and the drive to innovation.
“An open and multi-ISA Binary Translation framework will be an unprecedented gamechanger for the rapidly evolving RISC-V landscape: it accelerates adoption, solves the question of legacy software, and empowers rapid innovation of the ISA without sacrificing compatibility.”
Chief Technologist & Founder, VRULL GmbH
As a critical enabling technology, it must be supported and maintained by the global user community to avoid fragmentation and enable open collaboration:
- Educate.
Binary translation is a mature and well-understood technology. Still, it remains an active area of research.
We engage with the research community to advance the state-of-the-art. Our academic outreach helps to educate the next generation of researchers and engineers. - Develop.
We develop and maintain the key components for integrating production-ready binary-translation into a wide range of products:- a multi-ISA dynamic binary-translation framework,
- fast instruction decoders, and
- test-suites for assess the completeness, correctness, and performance of binary-translation products.
- Empower.
We thrive when our software is used widely to solve binary compatibility and migration challenges.
To drive adoption, we encourage the development of a downstream ecosystem of service providers, consultants and integrators that assist in the commercial adoption for device manufacturers.
