Abstract

Today's mobile phones boast computing capabilities once found in mainframe computers and workstations, so it should surprise no one that today's mobile phones can also host mobile virtualisation platforms with a range of accompanying benefits. As it does on servers and desktop computers, mobile virtualisation offers device OEMs, mobile network operators (MNOs), and semiconductor suppliers enhanced security, portability, reliability, license IP isolation, and hardware consolidation. This talk will cover how virtualisation works on mobile platforms, specifically the ARM architecture, and some of the challenges faced including inter-cell communication, and handling of peripherals.
