Background and Themes

While its roots trace back decades, resource virtualization has drawn renewed attention in recent years. Successful commercial products have extended the reach of virtual machines to commodity platforms from server/desktop even to mobile devices. Stable open source virtual servers (Vserver, User-mode Linux) and paravirtualized VMs (Xen) have been developed. Language-level VMs (Sun Java, MS CLR) run in a variety of platforms, ranging from embedded to server systems. Virtualization technologies encompass a variety of mechanisms and techniques used to address computer system problems such as security, performance, and reliability by decoupling the architecture and user-perceived behavior of hardware and software resources from their physical implementation. Virtualization is said to be a indispensable building block for the emerging computing platform of Cloud Computing.
