Abstract

Systems and methods are provided in example embodiments for performing binary translation. A binary translation system converts, by a translator module, source instructions to target instructions. The binary translation system identifies a condition code block in the source instructions, where the condition code block includes a plurality of condition bits. In response to identifying the condition code block, the binary translation system provides an optimizer module to convert the condition code block. Then, the binary translation system performs a pre-execution on the condition code block to resolve the plurality of condition bits in the condition code block.
