Abstract :
In this position paper, we explore the opportunities and challenges of running pocket hypervisors on commodity mobile devices through four proposed applications: secure operating systems, security services, mobile testbeds, and opportunistic sensor networks. We believe that pocket hypervisors can benefit mobile computing, but that mobility presents several important and unique challenges to virtualization.
