摘要： Data processing apparatus connectable to an associated display comprises a processor having an internal state dependent upon execution of application program code by the processor, the processor being operable to generate display data relating to images to be displayed using the associated display in response to the execution of the program code and to buffer display data relating to a most recent period of execution of a currently executing application; a non-volatile data storage arrangement operable to store program code for one or more applications; a random access memory operable to store temporary data relating to a current operational state of program execution while the processor is executing the program code for the currently executing application; a non-volatile suspend data memory; and a data transfer controller operable, in response to a suspend instruction, to transfer data from the random access memory relating to the currently executing application, data relating to a current internal state of the processor and the buffered display data to the suspend data memory, and operable, in response to a resume instruction, to transfer data from the suspend data memory to the random access memory and to the processor so as to recreate the state of execution of an application at the time that the suspend instruction was executed, and to retrieve the display data relating to the resumed application from the suspend data memory, the processor causing the display to display information based on the retrieved display data while the resume instruction is being completed.
