Physorg.com is one of many places carrying news of a recent experiment to run the Palacios virtual machine monitor on over 4,000 nodes, the largest test of the software to date. Results show that the ...

The software that creates a virtual machine (VM) environment in a computer (for the fundamental concept, see virtual machine). In a regular, non-virtual computer, the operating system is the master ...

The bulk of the time in this class examining a virtual machine monitor (VMM) in depth, at the source code level. The course explains the hardware/software interface of a modern x86 computer in detail.

In this paper, the authors present their experiences of building Linux/RTOS (Real-Time Operating System) hybrid operating environments on Xen and Gandalf Virtual Machine Monitors (VMMs). Xen is a ...

This sounds so far out - rootkits are bad enough, but now we have to worry about virtual machine rootkits. Lab rats at Microsoft Research and the University of Michigan have teamed up to create ...

A client-side hypervisor is a virtual machine monitor (VMM) that resides in and virtualizes a user's computer (see client virtualization). Type 1 hypervisors are the computer's master control program.

Editor's Note: Demand for increasing functionality and performance in systems designs continues to drive the need for more memory even as hardware engineers balance the dynamics of system capability, ...
