2. Comparison of platform virtualization software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_platform...

   Platform virtualization software, specifically emulators and hypervisors, are software packages that emulate the whole physical computer machine, often providing multiple virtual machines on one physical platform. The table below compares basic information about platform virtualization hypervisors.

3. Popek and Goldberg virtualization requirements - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popek_and_Goldberg...

   System virtual machines are capable of virtualizing a full set of hardware resources, including a processor (or processors), memory and storage resources and peripheral devices. A virtual machine monitor (VMM, also called hypervisor ) is the piece of software that provides the abstraction of a virtual machine.

4. Hardware virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_virtualization

   The creation and management of virtual machines has also been called "platform virtualization", or "server virtualization", more recently. [2] [3] Platform virtualization is performed on a given hardware platform by host software (a control program), which creates a simulated computer environment, a virtual machine (VM), for its guest software ...

5. Virtualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualization

   A virtual machine implements functionality of a (physical) computer with an operating system. The software or firmware that creates a virtual machine on the host hardware is called a hypervisor or virtual machine monitor. [2] Software executed on these virtual machines is separated from the underlying hardware resources.

6. System virtual machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_virtual_machine

   The desire to run multiple operating systems was the initial motivation for virtual machines, so as to allow time-sharing among several single-tasking operating systems. In some respects, a system virtual machine can be considered a generalization of the concept of virtual memory that historically preceded it.

7. TurnKey Linux Virtual Appliance Library - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TurnKey_Linux_Virtual...

   The TurnKey Linux Virtual Appliance Library is a free open-source software project which develops a range of Debian-based pre-packaged server software appliances (also called virtual appliances). Turnkey appliances can be deployed as a virtual machine (a range of hypervisors are supported), in cloud computing services such as Amazon Web ...
