IAP 2010 Activity


The Science Behind Virtualization
Larry Rudolph VMWare
Mon Jan 25 thru Fri Jan 29, 01-03:00pm, 32-124

Enrollment limited: advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 19-Jan-2010
Limited to 30 participants.
Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series)
Prereq: general programming experience

In this 5-day long course, we will cover the essentials of virtualization technologies. Although each day's lectures are self-contained, they are meant to cover the spectrum: cpu, network, and storage virtualization, in both the large, e.g. cloud, and small, e.g. mobile.

Each topic will be motivated by a particular need and the various solutions will be compared. Where possible, experiments will be run that highlight the different tradeoffs between the various solutions. Although the course is mostly from a VMware perspective, the classes will show that there are usually multiple ways to achieve the same goal.
