PowerVR virtualization and the Series8XT: geared for automotive
Over the last few years the concept of virtualization – separating software from the hardware on which it is run – has become familiar to many. In this post, we will describe what virtualization is, and look how it works in PowerVR GPUs, and explain how this provides great benefits to various markets, in particular to automotive.
On desktops, virtualization enables a computer to run more than one operating systems concurrently, so that, for example, a developer can run a Linux ‘guest’ operating system on a Microsoft Windows host machine, whereas in the enterprise space, it’s often used to consolidate workloads in order to decrease CapEx and OpEx. In embedded platforms, the primary purpose is to lower costs while also ensuring security through separation.
