  This paper presents GearV, a two-gear lightweight hypervisor architecture to
address the some known challenges. By dividing hypervisor into some partitions,
and dividing scheduling policies into Gear1 and Gear2 respectively, GearV
creates a consolidated platform to run best-effort system and safety-critical
system simultaneously with managed engineering effort. The two-gears
architecture also simplifies retrofitting the virtualization systems. We
believe that GearV can serves as a reasonable hypervisor architecture for the
mix-critical IoT systems.
