Anyone knowing the x86 language knows that a program cannot be 
programmed to do two different things
It cannot do both run out of memory *and* abort.
So make up your mind. What does it do?
And what does "endless number of times until aborted" mean? Does it 
abort after an infinite number of steps?
Make clear what you mean. After how many cycles is the simulation aborted?
