It is necessary to reduce the number of processes because it is impossible to provide each process that is contained in specification with its own virtual processor.

Dynamic program analysis is the analysis of computer software that is performed by executing programs on a real or virtual processor.

To respond to customer demands for greater scaling, the next version will include support for more than 16 virtual processors per machine.

In NLTSS processes were considered as virtual processors in a network with no firewalls or other restrictions.

It provides a low cost alternative to adding an additional dedicated security core to an SoC, by providing two virtual processors backed by hardware based access control.

Key to its framework are a series of virtual processors' that can be conditioned to handle communication, synchronous input-output and administration transactions separately.

The PP was built out of eight "virtual processors", VP's, which were designed to handle instructions and basic integer math only.

But in the age of dual core+ systems and smart schedulers (Windows7), virtual processors can only help.

Guest operating systems are limited to 255 gigabytes of vRAM and 8 virtual processors for vSphere 4.

This means that LWPs can be seen by the thread library as "virtual processors".
