  • Patent number: 8887159
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a flexible and scalable operating system achieving a fast boot. A computing system is described that includes a reserved static object memory configured to store predefined static threads, and a secure kernel configured to be executed in a fast boot mode. The secure kernel further may be configured to chain the static threads to a secure kernel thread queue stored in a secure kernel work memory, and to create temporary threads in the secure kernel work memory during the fast boot mode. The computing system may include a main kernel configured to be initialized by creating dynamic threads in a main kernel work memory during the fast boot mode. The main kernel may be configured to chain the static threads to a main kernel thread queue, and to assume control of the static threads from the secure kernel.

  • Patent number: 7149967
    Abstract: A table version of a document is generated by computing a table layout of the document and generating the table version based on the table layout. Computing the table layout can include recording the positions of each object in the document, dividing the document into sections, and grouping the sections based on their object content. Generating the table version of the document from the table layout can include creating table code that represents information in the table layout of the document. The table version of the document can be used to export the document to one or more computers in a distributed network while maintaining the visual fidelity and text content of the original document.
