To realize the full potential of multicore systems, many usage scenarios require using multiple secure computing domains, often managed by different operating systems, on the same physical device. This can be accomplished by dividing the cores, memory and I/O devices of a system into secure, logical partitions. The partitions need to operate independently of each other, and operating systems must be able to access and manage the hardware resources belonging to the partition with little or no overhead.
