The machine implemented method for operating at least one electronic system comprises detecting a pattern of use of plural control parameters in a path through a graph of operational context switches to reach a target operational context; storing a representation of the pattern in association with an indicator identifying the target operational context; responsive to detecting at least one of a request for a switch of operation from a source operational context to the target operational context, a trapping on a resource access, and a detection of a breakpoint, retrieving the representation in accordance with the indicator identifying the target operational context; and responsive to the retrieving, applying at least one control parameter to said at least one electronic system to match the pattern.
