[Microkernel-devroom] [TALK-PROPOSAL] The NOVA Microhypervisor Interface

[Udo Steinberg]

Hi all,

I'm proposing to give the following talk at FOSDEM's microkernel devroom:

Title:		The NOVA Microhypervisor Interface
Name:		Udo Steinberg
Duration:	45min (incl. discussion)

Abstract:
The NOVA microhypervisor combines microkernel and hypervisor functionality
and provides an extremely small trusted computing base for user applications
and virtual machines running on top of it. The microhypervisor implements a
capability-based authorization model and provides basic mechanisms for
virtualization, spatial and temporal separation, scheduling, communication,
and management of platform resources. The talk will focus on the hypervisor
interface and how it can be used by a multi-server environment to manage
platform resources, virtual machines, and user applications.  After
introducing the capability concept and the basic communication mechanisms,
more advanced topics such as IOMMU support and real-time scheduling will be
discussed.


Cheers,
Udo
