1) The document discusses providing real-time support for the Xen hypervisor by addressing two problems: virtual machines cannot accurately schedule real-time tasks due to running over virtual time, and the hypervisor is unaware of real-time tasks in guest operating systems. 2) It proposes a solution called "compositional scheduling" that aggregates real-time workloads and calculates CPU bandwidth requirements to determine schedulable bandwidth. 3) This involves refining scheduling theory for quantization effects and optimizing scheduling periods, and incorporating the theory into virtual machine scheduling through a new hypercall interface in Xen.
