How do you go about writing an emulator?

Hello,

how do you go about writing an emulator in Java? I understand what an emulator is and the basics for how it works but how would you actually go ahead and write one in Java? I have read a lot of eBooks and tutorials about it but I am having trouble understanding how the actual programming would be done.

Any good website references or eBooks would also be great.

*I already know the Java programming language so tutorials on Java programming won't help at all.*

Thanks,
Noah

1. Design a user interface that looks and acts like the user interface of what you're trying to emulate.

2. Write code to make your program act like the thing you're trying to emulate acts.

You're welcome.
