METHOD FOR SIMULATING A FIRST COMPUTING UNIT IN A SECOND COMPUTING UNIT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18319117 titled 'METHOD FOR SIMULATING A FIRST COMPUTING UNIT IN A SECOND COMPUTING UNIT
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for simulating a first computing unit in a second computing unit. This means that software executed in the first computing unit can be executed in the second computing unit.
- The method involves a scheduling module in the second computing unit determining a time schedule for processing the software processes in the first computing unit to be simulated.
- At least one simulation module in the second computing unit executes the software to simulate the first computing unit. The simulation module performs a predetermined action at a specific time point based on the time schedule to obtain an action result.
- Based on the action result, an action time point for a future action is determined. This could be the next action to be performed.
- The determined action time point is then used to update the time schedule for the simulation.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method for simulating a first computing unit in a second computing unit, wherein software executed in the first computing unit to be simulated is executed in the second computing unit. The method includes determining, by a scheduling module in the second computing unit, a time schedule according to which processes of the software are processed in the first computing unit to be simulated; executing, by at least one simulation module in the second computing unit, the software for simulating the first computing unit, wherein the at least one simulation module performs a predetermined action at a respective predetermined action time point based on the time schedule, in order to obtain an action result; determining, based on the action result, an action time point of a future, in particular next, action; and using the determined action time point for the time schedule.
