difference between simulator and emulator

Hi all
I want to know what is the differensce between this
simulators&emulators
compiler&debugger
assembler&linker

and what is realy ment by real time systems with example please?

thank u
 

difference between emulator and simulator

simulator:
it is used to simulate the program in software itself.
emulator:
program is verified through hardware
compiler:
using this the high level language is converted in to the machine language
debugger:
Software that helps a programmer debug a program by stopping at certain breakpoints and displaying various programming elements.
assembler:
using this the assemply level language is converted in to the machine language
linker:
In computer science, a linker or link editor is a program that takes one or more objects generated by compilers and assembles them into a single executable program.
 

difference between emulator & simulator

The simulator simulates the behavior of your system through software, so you can simulate a program that will run on a microcontroller or on a FPGA. And you can simulate the behavior of a hardware system using mathematical equations.

on the other hand, the emulator uses hardware to emulate the behavior of your system. For example, if you want to know the way your program will run on a specific microcontroller (which will be a part of a car afterwards) you get an emulator for that microcontroller and connect the microcontroller to it (you may need to connect the emulator to the PC) and see the real output. With an emulator you can see the behavior in different stats of operations, like different temperatures or when it is connected to other peripherals.
 

emulator simulator difference

Yeah both are right. I am just adding one thing is that a emulator is a device, computer program, or system that accepts the same inputs and produces the same outputs as a given system.
Whereas simulator is a device, computer program or system used during software verification, which behaves or operates like a given system when provided with a set of controlled inputs.
 

difference between emulators and simulators

Emulator does the same thing as simulator, the difference is additionally it mimics the behavior of underlying hardware.

hi iam sending you a pdf " first steps in embedded system"

where you can find answers for difference between simultor&emulator
and also difference between harvard and von_neumann architecture
