Hey Rupert, The SIMH guy(s?) makes the claim "...and several IBM Mainframes" on his "SIMH Simulator for Android" description. I'm skeptical, though, as his developers website shows nothing related to big iron in "SIMH packages". You could always reach out to them, however, and find out what

It seems a stretch to me that z390 would run on Android's flavor of Java, and if so at what performance level? It might be more fruitful to try to port Hercules to Android using the NDK (native development kit), which includes a C compiler and library. Personally, it would me more interesting to
