Designing and Deploying with Mobile Virtualization

This white paper examines the economic impact of virtualization as a core component of mobile handset design. In particular, it offers readers a "teardown" of key device components (hardware and software) and analyzes how mobile virtualization reduces costs on the Bill of Materials. It also identifies incremental benefits from embedding virtualization in mobile devices, including performance and power management, as paths to both cost reduction and differentiation in a dynamic marketplace.
