Abstract
A system and method for providing hardware virtualization and resource management in a virtual machine environment. An application server environment is extended to provide an interface from the higher layers in the application server environment to the system's actual processing power, such that the allocation of processing can be made in a machine-independent way. A layer of software can be placed between the virtual machine and the hardware that improves the efficiency of the virtualized Java execution system. The system comprises two main components: a first, lower-level, execution environment that replaces the usual operating system; and a second, higher-level, resource broker that is responsible for handing out new virtual machines to the above layers, and for monitoring the current resource usage of the running virtual machines.
