OPTIMIZING RUNTIME SYSTEM OPERATION VIA PRE-BOOT SYSTEM ANALYSIS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240126637 titled 'OPTIMIZING RUNTIME SYSTEM OPERATION VIA PRE-BOOT SYSTEM ANALYSIS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for analyzing firmware associated with a critical event during the boot process of an information handling system to determine if it is Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) compliant. If the firmware is not compliant, the system retrieves a rule associated with the firmware and applies actions based on the rule.
- Explanation of the patent/innovation:
- Analyzing firmware during boot process for UEFI compliance - Retrieving rules associated with non-compliant firmware - Applying actions based on the rules to the information handling system
Potential applications of this technology
The technology described in the patent application could be applied in various industries where information handling systems are used, such as computer manufacturing, data centers, and server management.
Problems solved by this technology
1. Ensuring firmware compliance with UEFI standards 2. Automating actions based on firmware analysis during critical events
Benefits of this technology
1. Improved system reliability and stability 2. Enhanced security through firmware compliance checks 3. Streamlined troubleshooting process during critical events
Potential commercial applications of this technology
Optimizing Information Handling Systems with UEFI Compliance Checks
Possible prior art
There may be prior art related to firmware analysis and compliance checks in information handling systems, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.
Unanswered questions
How does the system determine which actions to apply based on the retrieved rules?
The abstract does not provide details on the specific criteria or decision-making process for applying actions based on the rules.
What types of critical events during the boot process trigger the firmware analysis?
The abstract does not specify the specific critical events that would prompt the system to analyze the firmware for UEFI compliance.
Original Abstract Submitted
if a critical event occurs during a boot process, an information handling system may analyze firmware associated with the critical event to determine whether the firmware is unified extensible firmware interface compliant. in response to determining that the firmware is not unified extensible firmware interface compliant, the system may retrieve a rule associated with the firmware, and apply one or more actions to the information handling system based on the rule.
