Virtual Platform

Role

The Virtual Platform is a model to be extended for transparently interfacing a potentially unlimited number of hosting environments. This library has been designed and implemented to bridge and manage the lifecycle of execution units running on a different platform than gCore.

The gCube enabling technology is capable of dynamically instantiating platforms (along with their resources) compliant to such a model. When new software designed to run on a specific platform is uploaded in the software repository and then requested for deployment, a virtual image of the target platform is created to manage such software.
