Abstract: A method and device for dealing with problem of software-incompatibility or obsolescence of hardware. The method includes copying of information regarding architecture and other features from hardware components, conversion of existing hardware-specific software to suit architecture of new hardware component and transmittal of adapted software to new hardware. The method and device provide for enabling semi automatic migration of hardware-specific software between hardware components such as computer processors. This process of software migration, in turn, provides for effective transfer of functionality from one hardware component to the other. This novel process can be used for migration of software from one processor to the other.
