Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Virtual machines and computer architecture
High level language virtual machine architectures and implementation
Emulation
Dynamic program optimisation
Process virtualisation
Memory virtualisation
Input/output virtualisation
Multiprocessor virtualisation
Applications and theoretical foundations to Cloud computing
