+The Spice project aims to provide a complete open source solution for
+interaction with virtualized desktop devices.The Spice project deals with both
+the virtualized devices and the front-end. Interaction between front-end and
+back-end is done using VD-Interfaces. The VD-Interfaces (VDI) enable both ends
+of the solution to be easily utilized by a third-party component.
+
+The following diagram illustrates VD-Interfaces:

+
+Currently, the project main focus is to provide high-quality remote access to
+QEMU virtual machine. Seeking to help break down the barriers to virtualization
+adoption by overcoming traditional desktop virtualization challenges,
+emphasizing user experience. For this purpose, Red Hat introduced the SPICE
+remote computing protocol that is used for Spice client-server communication.
+Other components developed include QXL display device and driver, etc.
+
+The following diagram illustrates the current Spice solution on top of QEMU.

+
+The Spice project plans to provide additional solutions, including:
+
+- Remote access for a physical machine
+- VM front-end for local users (i.e., render on and share devices of the
+ same physical machine)
