Emerging Trends in Mobile Virtualization  
presented by Ram Sarabu, Senior Product Manager, Open Kernel Labs

Server virtualization and desktop virtualization have been widely adopted and well understood in the IT industry arena for a long time.  However, embedded virtualization is a fairly new technology that addresses problems unique to embedded devices.  You're invited to attend this special Keynote presentation that will show exactly how the entire mobile ecosystem benefits when virtualization concepts are applied specifically to smartphones. Learn why Android, Symbian and Windows Mobile operating systems are rapidly innovating and expanding smartphone markets.  We will explain how these new trends in the mobile industry are offering challenges to device manufacturers, semiconductor suppliers and mobile network operators.  We will also show how mobile virtualization plays a critical role in addressing these challenges.  Finally, we will demonstrate how mobile virtualization from OK Labs enables smartphones as flexible endpoints for enterprise applications.

For four days, this beautiful Mediterranean city will become the place for mobile leaders to gather, collaborate, conduct business and experience VISION IN ACTION.

This year's Mobile World Congress will include:

• A world-class thought leadership conference featuring visionary keynotes and action-provoking panel discussions
• An exhibition with more than 1,300 companies displaying the cutting-edge products and technology that will define the mobile future
• An Awards ceremony  and industry seminars that highlight the most innovative mobile solutions and initiatives from around the world
• And most importantly, the planet's best venue for mobile industry networking, finding business opportunities, and making deals

In 2009, Mobile World Congress hosted approximately 47,000 mobile professionals from 182 countries. More than 50% of these were C-Level executives, and 9,000 of them represented mobile network operators from around the world.  In addition, more than 2,400 members of the press reported from the event, representing more than 1,500 media groups from 76 countries.

SEE 2009 is where the Symbian community comes together to share, to create, to network, to learn and to have lots of fun!

Gernot Heiser's technical paper “seL4: Formal verification of an OS kernel,” will be presentent at the twenty-second ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (SOSP). This paper describes the ground-breaking proof of functional correctness of the NICTA and OK Labs seL4 microkernel.

SOSP, which is the top venue for publication of OS work, and one of the most prestigious in all of computer science, will be held in Big Sky, Montana, from October 11 to 14. Heiser will also present the paper “Automatic device driver synthesis with Termite,” which he co-authored, describing a revolutionary approach to device-driver generation that ensures driver correctness by construction and has the potential to completely remove the dominant source of bugs from operating systems.

Both papers can be downloaded here:

The ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (SOSP) is a conference that brings together developers and researchers from academia and industry to advance the science and technology in operating systems. The conference is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Operating Systems (SIGOPS). It has been held once every two years since 1967, when the first SOSP conference took place in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.
