DEVICE SUSPEND METHOD AND COMPUTING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17955695 titled 'DEVICE SUSPEND METHOD AND COMPUTING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method and device for suspending a computing device. Before entering a suspended state, the method releases memory space occupied by a background process unrelated to a foreground process. This reduces the amount of data stored in memory during suspension, allowing for faster restoration of the device when it needs to be woken up.

  • The method releases memory space occupied by a background process before device suspension.
  • This prevents the background process from being saved in the device's memory during suspension.
  • Only a small amount of data needs to be read from memory when the device is woken up, enabling rapid restoration of the working state.
  • This reduces the delay in reading data from memory during device wakeup, accelerating the wakeup speed.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied to various computing devices, such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other portable devices.
  • It can be beneficial in scenarios where quick wakeup and restoration of the device's working state are important, such as in emergency situations or time-sensitive tasks.

Problems Solved

  • Reduces the delay in reading data from memory during device wakeup.
  • Accelerates the wakeup speed of the device.
  • Prevents unnecessary background processes from occupying memory space during suspension.

Benefits

  • Faster restoration of the device's working state when it needs to be woken up.
  • Reduced delay in accessing data from memory during device wakeup.
  • Efficient utilization of memory space by releasing unrelated background processes during suspension.


Original Abstract Submitted

A device suspension method and a computing device are provided. In the method, before a device enters a suspended state, memory space occupied by a background process that is unrelated to a foreground process is released. In this way, the background process unrelated to the foreground process is not saved in a memory of the device. In other words, it reduces data stored in the memory when the device is suspended. Therefore, when the device needs to be woken up, only a relatively small amount of data needs to be read from the memory, and a working state can be rapidly restored. This can reduce a delay of reading data from the memory when the device is woken up, thereby accelerating a wakeup speed of the device. In addition, the data is stored in the memory when the device is suspended.
