A study on mobile virtualization

This paper proposes a mobile virtualization system based android-x86 virtual machine. The proposed system provides virtual services to a light-weighted device. Those are provided from the android-x86 based virtual machine. Here, light-weighted device is like a phone or a pad just having the ability of H.264 decoding and a virtual machine is based android-x86 using Oracle VirtualBox. In this paper, we propose several methods that android-x86 based applications can operate same way as it does in real smart devices. Those include device virtualization and hardware acceleration schemes.
