Appl. No.:

11/648251

Inventors:

Mic Bowman - Beaverton OR, US
Rob Knauerhase - Portland OR, US
Paul Brett - Hillsboro OR, US
Robert Adams - Lake Oswego OR, US

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G06F 9/455

US Classification:

718 1, 718104, 718105

Abstract:

Methods and apparatuses enable creation of a virtual machine (VM) clone initiated through application or service logic. The application requests generation of a VM clone from within the runtime execution of the application. The request is serviced by a VM generator, which identifies a state of the VM to clone and identifies hardware resources on which to create the VM clone. Based on a determination of what resources on which to generate the VM clone, the VM generator creates the VM clone on the determined resources, having the identified state. In one embodiment, a use case of resource copy or reference copy is selected for each resource. In one embodiment, the VM generator considers a number of factors in determining where to instantiate the VM clone. The parameters may include hints or preference parameters sent by the application and/or resource loading or performance.

International Classification:

US Classification:

709207, 709206, 709217, 709219

Abstract:

Methods and devices for networked applications are disclosed. In one embodiment, a device instructs a proxy server to receive traffic inbound for the device, and to notify the device when such traffic arrives. The device can then sleep, except for a notification channel that listens for a wakeup message from the proxy server. The proxy server detects traffic inbound for proxied devices, caches the data from that traffic, and issues notification messages to the proxied devices to cause those devices to download the cached data. One use for such a system is in instant messaging, as it allows a subscriber to place a battery-powered computing device in sleep mode while still advertising a continuous presence to her messaging buddies.
