Virtual Machine Interface
- Virtual Machine Interface
Virtual Machine Interface [ [http://vmi.ncsa.uiuc.edu/ Official web site] ] ("VMI") may refer to a communication protocol for running parallel programs on a distributed memory system.
Virtual Machine Interface [ [http://www.vmware.com/interfaces/paravirtualization.html Transparent Paravirtualisation - VMware Inc] ] is also the name given by VMware to the proposed open standard protocol that guest operating systems can use to communicate with the hypervisor of a virtual machine. An implementation of this standard was merged in the main Linux kernel version 2.6.21. A number of popular GNU/Linux distributions now ship with VMI support enabled by default.
