VMM Delivers Virtual Protection

Nov. 6, 2006

VirtualLogix, formally Jaluna, has renamed and repartitioned its virtual machine manager (VMM) software—now available as VLX for Digital Multimedia, VLX for Mobile Handsets, and VLX for Network Infrastructure. This is a new version-of the VLX as well as a rebranding. The digital multimedia targets platforms such as Texas Instruments DSPs, while the network version adds support for the Intel CoreT2 Duo E6400 and T7400 processors, taking advantage of Intel's hardware to allow multiple, unmodified operating systems to run in their own partition. VLX can handle multiple processor-cores with the ability to partition the system so cores are allocated to particular isolated operating systems. This can be used to balance the load as well as maintain fault tolerance. The network version can use up to 64 Gbytes of virtual memory.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
