Thesis paper available?

Hello friend! First of all that i was surprised to see we studied in the same university - i was in electronics engineering though. I saw your work from rpcs3 and i really admire all your work in emulation and RE.

Given i am interested in both LLE, and HLE. And i want to start studying LLE first, is there a chance you make the document of your thesis - concerning pctation available?

Thank you very much and congratulations for your achievements.

Whoa I completely missed this issue, sorry! I remember to talking to someone related on Discord some months ago, was that you?

In any case lemme know if you want to chat there.

Hello my friend! Honored to speak with you!

No, it wasn't me, i have never actually used discord, though i have no problem making a start there! Which channel should i hop on (if channel is the correct word used in this platform)? Something related to Vita3k?

Like i said before, i really admire your work. Emulation seems like a dark art to me, and i am really interested in it.

I have found documentation for simple 8bit systems (NES), like javidx9 or bisqwit, or the ps1 emulation project in rust with a pdf (although, emulation reaches only the BIOS).

But nothing big demystifying beefier emus. (And very little regarding HLE as well).

I am really surprised you did a PS1 emu as part of your bachelor thesis.

Finding info is the best thing for my way of learning (especially since my coding skills are not great enough to perform such a big task - but creating an emu is one thing in my checklist that i have to do!)

Really honored to speak to you again! Tell me, again how do i find you in discord.

Have a great year!

Hah so it wasn't you, that's surprising.

No need to be on a server, you can just Direct Message people. My user ID is velocity#0042, just go to Friends -> Add Friend.

That said, I also happen to moderate a Discord Server specifically for emulation development. Link for that here: https://discord.gg/dkmJAes We also have a community on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/EmuDev though Discord is more immediate and generally has more traffic.

Like i said before, i really admire your work. Emulation seems like a dark art to me, and i am really interested in it.

Thanks! It's such an interesting and deep field.

But nothing big demystifying beefier emus. (And very little regarding HLE as well).

Yeah that tends to be really project-specific. We can talk more in detail via Discord, I don't find long-forms of communication like GitHub very fit for such discussions.

I am really surprised you did a PS1 emu as part of your bachelor thesis.

Yeah I really wanted to. I had been working on emulators for 4-5 years before starting on it (since about I started uni).
