It's a new feature in a version thats just in alpha so how they will look may change in the end. There will hopefully be documentation around 4.0 GA release.
The feature at a high level though is an interface to handle queries with an implementing class instead of the storage engine. A usecase that the virtual tables currently created in system_views keyspace are for exploring whats happening on system with cqlsh or directed cql queries (instead of nodetool with jmx).
