Transferral Of Process State And/Or Components In Computing Environments - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18355826 titled 'Transferral Of Process State And/Or Components In Computing Environments

Simplified Explanation

The patent application is about a technology that allows the transfer of state information between processes or software programs in a computing environment.

  • State information refers to the current status or data of a process or software program.
  • The technology enables a new instance of a process or software program to receive the state information, even if the original instance that owned the state information has terminated.
  • The termination of the original instance can be either natural (normal termination) or unnatural (abrupt termination).
  • This technology ensures that the state information is not lost and can be seamlessly transferred to a new instance.
  • It improves the continuity and efficiency of processes or software programs in a computing environment.


Original Abstract Submitted

This technology relates to transferring state information between processes or active software programs in a computing environment where a new instance of a process or software program may receive such state information even after an original or old instance of the process or software program that owned the state information has terminated either naturally or unnaturally.
