Abstract: A method, medium and apparatus for storing and restoring a register context for a fast context switching between tasks is disclosed. The method, medium and apparatus may improve overall operating speed of a system by increasing the speed of context switching. The method may include adding an update code for updating information of live registers to a task file that includes a code of a task to perform a specified function, converting the task file having the update code added thereto into a run file, updating the information of the live registers with the update code during running of the task using the run file, and storing a live register context according to the updated information of the registers.

Abstract: A method of declaring and using variables includes; determining whether variables are independent variables or common variables, declaring and storing the independent variables in a plurality of data structures respectively corresponding to the plurality of processors, declaring and storing the common variables in a shared memory area, allowing each one of the plurality of processors to simultaneously use the independent variables in a corresponding one of the plurality of data structures, and allowing only one of the plurality of processors at a time to use the common variables in the shared memory area.

Abstract: A context switch method capable of promptly switching a context for a dynamically generated task and a dynamic link by converting a state of multiple register files, switching the context, and separately restoring and storing the context. That is, the context switch method includes: maintaining a multiple register files; establishing the multiple register to be in any one of a prefetch state, a current state, and a store state; converting a state of the multiple register files to be in any one of the prefetch state, the current state, and the store state when a context switch occurs; wherein, in the prefetch state, determining a memory address to read a next task context to be subsequently performed by the register file, in the current state, performing a task with the task context of the register file and in the store state, storing the register file in a memory.

Abstract: A method of transmitting data between processors, including: establishing and storing an encoding method for each area of virtual address space of a first processor in a predetermined storage device; determining an area of virtual address space corresponding to data to be transmitted to a second processor; and determining the encoding method corresponding to the determined area of the virtual address space with reference to the storage device and transmitting the data to the second processor by using the determined encoding method.

Abstract: A method of reducing a code size of a program by controlling a control flow of the program using software in a computer system is disclosed.
