Abstract
Virtualization, a technique once used to multiplex the resources of high-priced mainframe hardware, is seeing a resurgence in applicability with the increasing computing power of commodity computers. By inserting a layer of software between the machine and traditional operating systems, this technology allows access to a shared computing medium in a manner that is secure, resource-controlled, and e#cient. These properties are attractive in the field of on-demand computing, where the fine-grained subdivision of resources provided by virtualized systems allows potentially higher utilization of computing resources.
