As ARM CPUs become increasingly common in mobile devices and servers, there is a growing demand for providing the benefits of virtualization for ARMbased devices. We present our experiences building the Linux ARM hypervisor, KVM/ARM, the first full system ARM virtualization solution that can run unmodified guest operating systems on ARM multicore hardware. KVM/ARM introduces split-mode virtuali...

Virtualization has become an essential technology in the data center. Virtualization improves resource utilization through server consolidation, but it also makes resource management more complex. Golondrina, an autonomic resource management system, was built to use virtual server relocation to handle resource stress situations, that is, situations where the combined resource needs of the virtu...

Many factors influence education nowadays. Educational institutions are faced with budget cuttings, outdated IT, data security management and the willingness to integrate remote learning at home. Virtualization technologies provide innovative solutions to the problems. The paper presents an original educational infrastructure using virtualization technologies implemented in a training process a...

Network virtualization has become a common research topic that many researchers consider a basis for defining a new generation network architectures. In this paper, we attempt to clarify the concept of network virtualization with its brief history, to introduce the benefit of network virtualization for the future network, to posit our strong belief in that the future network should adopt a form...

Separation of policy from mechanism is a well-known principle in computing literature. Network virtualization reincarnates this very concept in the context of networking architecture. But most of the existing works either tangentially touch the issues regarding the implementation of such architecture or just ignore them completely. In this article we present NVP2P, a network virtualization fram...

Virtualization has now become ubiquitous, especially in large-scale data centers. Significant inroads have also be made into high performance computing and adaptive systems, areas where I have focused in the Virtuoso and V3VEE projects. The rapid adoption of virtualization in all of these areas is in no small part due to the ability of full system virtualization to adapt existing OSes to virtua...

Virtualization has gained great acceptance in the server and cloud computing arena. In recent years, it has also been widely applied to real-time embedded systems with stringent timing constraints. We present a comprehensive survey on real-time issues in virtualization for embedded systems, covering popular virtualization systems including KVM, Xen, L4 and others.

Research in virtualization technology has gained significant momentum in recent years, which brings not only opportunities to the forensic community, but challenges as well. In this paper, we discuss the potential roles of virtualization in the area of digital forensics and conduct an investigation on the recent progresses which utilize the virtualization techniques to support modern computer f...

The submission of tasks to a data center plays a crucial role to achieve the services like scheduling, processing in a cloud computing environment. Energy consumption of a data center must be considered for task processing as it results in high operational expenditures and bad environmental impact. Unfortunately, none of the current research works focus on energy factor while submitting tasks t...
