Xen has since grown into a project in its own right, enabling us to
investigate interesting research issues regarding the best techniques
- for virtualizing resources such as the CPU, memory, disk and network.
+ for virtualising resources such as the CPU, memory, disk and network.
The project has been bolstered by support from Intel Research
Cambridge, and HP Labs, who are now working closely with us.
-% We're also in receipt of support from Microsoft Research Cambridge to
-% port Windows XP to run on Xen.

-Xen was first described in the 2003 paper at SOSP \\

-The first public release of Xen (1.0) was made in October 2003. Xen
-was developed as a research project by the University of Cambridge
-Computer Laboratory (UK). Xen was the first Virtual Machine Monitor
-to make use of {\em paravirtualisation} to achieve near-native

then, Xen has been extensively developed and is now used in production
scenarios on multiple sites.
