Solution 23290: Texas Instruments' Support for Application Virtualization Platforms such as Softgrid®, Citrix®, and Thin Client™.

Does Texas Instruments support Application Virtualization Platforms such as Softgrid®, Citrix®, or Thin Client®?

In computing, virtualization is the creation of a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, such as a hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or network resources.

While a physical computer in the classical sense is clearly a complete and actual machine, both subjectively (from the user's point of view) and objectively (from the hardware system administrator's point of view), a virtual machine is subjectively a complete machine (or very close), but objectively merely a set of files and running programs on an actual, physical machine (which the user need not necessarily be aware of).

At this time, Texas Instruments does not support Application Virtualization platforms.
