Hi! My name is Chunghwan. I am a Masters student working the Flux Systems Research Group, the University of Utah, USA.
I have a question regarding QEMU. First, let me introduce what I am doing related with QEMU. I and two other students have formed up a team for a project called "Accelerating Dynamic Binary Translation with the GPUs". As the name of the project suggests our main idea is to parallelize Dynamic Binary Translation (DBT) process and speed it up with GPUs using the NVIDIA CUDA library. As far as we know the target of DBT can be - a process (OS process) or a virtual machine. When the target is a VM we do not know where to begin translation because the execution flow of a VM is nondeterministic. We would like to know whether you think it is possible for us to parallelize the DBT in QEMU. Moreover, we hope you can give us advice on figuring out the control flow of VM execution. -- Sincerely, Chung Hwan Kim School of Computing and Flux Research Group University of Utah chung...@cs.utah.edu www.cs.utah.edu/~chunghwn
