    Chapter 14 of the the book Operating Systems: Internals and Design Principles by William Stallings introduces virtualization and hardware related issues. You can access the eighth edition of the book through Aalto's ProQuest subscription and read only the beginning of the chapter, until Section 14.2 Processor Issues (included). You can glance through the rest of the sections too to better understand the concepts mentioned in the slides.
