Is execution of ARM assembly in iPhone Simulator or Android Simulator possible?

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to execute programs using arm assembly language in the simulators?

The Android emulator, based on QEMU, provides full ARMv5TE emulation. ARMv6/v7, VFP, and NEON are present in the current version but I think support for those is still a little flaky.

The Android SDK is a free download, so grab a copy and see if it does what you need.

UPDATE: Full ARMv7-A support is available and stable.

It's not possible in the iPhone simulator because it's a i386 application without the capability to emulate another processor. As a consequence, you have to compile your iPhone app to i386 code in order to run it in the simulator.

(I can't tell you about Android.)
