An Overview of LINA

To create LINA, we started with traditional virtualization solutions, building on existing strengths and creating new ones:

LINA is invisible to the end user. The LINA virtual operating system comes without a graphical user interface. LINA runs as invisibly as Java does.

LINA is integrated into the underlying operating system. The kernel resource mapper gives LINA applications transparent access to the network, file system, and other resources of the host OS.

LINA enables native look and feel. By mapping Linux GUI calls to their corresponding native GUI calls, LINA applications appear identical to the native applications running on the user's operating system.
