Abstract

This chapter presents some of the aspects of virtualisation and its role in modern society. In today's world, a controlled virtualisation process creates enormous opportunity for economic growth of those countries and organisations, which, so far, due to various restrictions, have had no chance to become competitive in the global market. Those people and organisations that know how to make use of the opportunities presented by virtualisation may become more effective in business. Moreover, virtualisation creates the best options for intellectual enterprise development. Virtualisation is a very complex process. The author would like to discusses both the positive impact virtualisation can have on society and also some dangers or problems.
