    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques to provide software support for a hardware component incorporated into a computing device with a variety of processor components supporting different instruction sets and with a variety of operating systems. An apparatus may include a main processor component of a computing device; a network device simulator coupled to a hardware component of the computing device, and to provide a simulated network device; and a bus network interface controller (NIC) simulator to provide a simulated bus NIC, the bus NIC simulator and the network device simulator to present the hardware component to the main processor component as the simulated network device accessible to the main processor component through at least the simulated bus NIC and a simulated network that couples the simulated bus NIC to the simulated network device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
