Abstract
The topic of virtualization has received renewed attention. Xen is a popular
open source type-I hypervisor. The Xen hypervisor currently has limited
capabilities for runtime modification to the core hypervisor, which impairs
research into dynamic adaptation for system-level virtualization. This
paper discusses recent investigations into the feasibility of extending
Xen to support runtime adaptation for core hypervisor service, e.g.,
scheduler.
