The course discusses virtualization as a concept on all layers of a computer system from hardware to software:

Process virtual machines

1. Emulation: Interpretation and Binary Translation
2. Process Virtual Machines and Containers
3. Dynamic Binary Optimization
4. High-Level Language Virtual Machine Architecture
5. High-Level Language Virtual Machine Implementation
    

System virtual machines (+ guest lectures in Dec./Jan.)

1. Co-designed Virtual Machines
2. System Virtual Machines
3. Multiprocessor Virtualization
4. Non-functional properties: performance, security, energy
5. Emerging Applications

We will use the textbook "Virtual Machines" by Smith/Nair as basis for this course.

The coursework includes four practical exercises on the following topics:

• CPU emulation
• Operating system containers
• Byte code VMs + JIT translation
• System VM analysis
