The Study and Evaluation of ARM-Based Mobile Virtualization

In common sense, virtualization technology is adopted to offer several isolated execution environments and make better use of computational resources in server environment. However, in embedded systems, the significance of virtualization does not come into the picture. The extensive utilization of m...
