Abstract: A method includes inputting a decompressing compressed image in a computing device. The method also includes applying one or more delta images by a processor to reduce a transfer time for the inputted and decompressed patch image. The method also includes performing one or more calls to a system of memory caches for reads and writes of the decompressed patch image and additional input and output due to a shortage of space in an internal random-access memory (RAM). The method also includes locating arbitrary storage to redirect the decompressed patch image and the additional input and output. The method also includes redirecting the inputted decompressed patch image and the additional input and output to the arbitrary storage.

Abstract: A method includes inputting a compressed image in a computing system. The method also includes a process of decompressing another image over the compressed image by a processor. Power is restored to the process of decompressing the image in response to an interruption to the decompression process. The decompressed image is configured to override the inputted compressed image. The method also includes completing the process of decompressing the image over the inputted compressed image.

Abstract: A method includes inputting at least one compressed image in a computing system. The method also includes an inplace patching process. Another image is decompressed over the compressed image by a processor. Local variables are stored periodically, receiving restored power after an interruption to the inplace patching, wherein an execution of the inplace patching is resumed at a later time interval by the processor by restoring the local variables. The method also includes completing the inplace patching process of decompressing the image over the inputted compressed image after restoring the local variables.

Abstract: A method includes inputting a compressed image in a computing device. The method also includes identifying a shortage of random access memory during a decompression process. The method also includes performing calls to a system of memory caches to read and write input and output including the inputted compressed image by a processor. The method also includes identifying arbitrary storage to read and write the input and output by the processor. The method also includes redirecting the input and output by the processor to the identified arbitrary storage.
