Abstract

A virtual machine monitor allows several different operating systems to run concurrently on the same machine. This paper presents the description of a virtual machine monitor and its support structure which can be implemented on a microprogrammable minicomputer or a distributed network of such machines. In our approach, all storage, transformational, input, and output resources of the system are accessed through a mapping mechanism. The design and implementation methodology for an actual realization of the virtual machine monitor is discussed.
