CHARON-VAX

CHARON-VAX Application Notes

CHARON-VAX is a hardware emulator, but as a software application it can be extended with additional functionality, connect to host system services, and in general be used in ways the real hardware could not. We use application notes to explain a specific way of using CHARON-VAX or interesting ways to add functionality. We encourage CHARON-VAX users to supply us with application notes or suggestions for such notes for publication on this page. The documents listed here are in PDF format.
