Hardware Virtualization Technology

Speaker: Martyn Spink, Geraint North

Wednesday 29th November, 20:00
Denis Sciama Lecture Theatre

Martyn Spink and Geraint North will speak about Transitive's QuickTransit® technology, which allows software compiled for one processor and operating system to run transparently on a different processor and operating system without recompilation or patching. The most famous use of this technology is probably Apple's Rosetta, which allows applications compiled for PowerPC Macs to run on the new Intel-based Macs. Martyn and Geraint will show this in action as well as demonstrating another use of the technology.
