2. List of x86 virtualization instructions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_x86_virtualization...

   Instruction set extensions that have been added to the x86 instruction set in order to support hardware virtualization.These extensions provide instructions for entering and leaving a virtualized execution context and for loading virtual-machine control structures (VMCSs), which hold the state of the guest and host, along with fields which control processor behavior within the virtual machine.

3. Hardware virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_virtualization

   Hardware virtualization is the virtualization of computers as complete hardware platforms, certain logical abstractions of their componentry, or only the functionality required to run various operating systems. Virtualization emulates the hardware environment of its host architecture, allowing multiple OSes to run unmodified and in isolation.

4. GPU virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPU_virtualization

   In mediated device pass-through or full GPU virtualization, the GPU hardware provides contexts with virtual memory ranges for each guest through IOMMU and the hypervisor sends graphical commands from guests directly to the GPU. This technique is a form of hardware-assisted virtualization and achieves near-native [b] performance and high ...

5. Desktop virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_virtualization

   Desktop virtualization can be used in conjunction with application virtualization and user profile management systems, now termed user virtualization, to provide a comprehensive desktop environment management system. In this mode, all the components of the desktop are virtualized, which allows for a highly flexible and much more secure desktop ...

6. Virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualization

   A piece of hardware imitates another while in hardware assisted virtualization, a hypervisor (a piece of software) imitates a particular piece of computer hardware or the entire computer. Furthermore, a hypervisor is not the same as an emulator; both are computer programs that imitate hardware, but their domain of use in language differs. [8]

8. Hyper-V - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-V

   Hyper-V is a native hypervisor developed by Microsoft; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems running Windows. [1] It is included in Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows NT (since Windows 8) as an optional feature to be manually enabled. [2]

9. x86 virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization

   x86 virtualization is the use of hardware-assisted virtualization capabilities on an x86/x86-64 CPU.. In the late 1990s x86 virtualization was achieved by complex software techniques, necessary to compensate for the processor's lack of hardware-assisted virtualization capabilities while attaining reasonable performance.
