    Abstract: A method and apparatus that schedules and manages a background task for device is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device registers the background task, where the registering includes storing execution criteria for the background task. The execution criteria indicates a criterion for launching the background task and the execution criteria based on a component status of the device. The device further monitors the running state of the device for an occurrence of the execution criteria. If the execution criteria occurs, the device determines an available headroom with the device in order to perform the background task and launches the background task if the background task importance is greater than the available device headroom, where the background task importance is a measure of how important it is for the device to run the background task.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for priority donations among different processes are described. A first process running with a first priority may receive a request from a second process running with a second priority to perform a data processing task for the second process. A dependency relationship may be identified between the first process and a third process running with a third priority performing separate data processing task. The dependency relationship may indicate that the data processing task is to be performed via the first process subsequent to completion of the separate data processing task via the third process. The third process may be updated with the second priority to complete the separate data processing task. The first process may perform the data processing task with the second priority for the second process.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that manages processes upon the device entering and waking from sleep mode is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device receives a signal to wakeup the device from the sleep mode. The sleep mode includes a plurality of processes that were executing prior to the device being put into a sleep mode and the plurality of processes includes a suppressed process and an unsuppressed process. For each of the processes, the device resumes execution of that process if that process is an unsuppressed process and defers execution of the process if that process is a suppressed process.

    Abstract: An electronic device: displays a first window in a display area; and detects a first user input associated with one or more edges of the first window. In response to detecting the first user input, and in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a first input type, the device resizes one or more dimensions of the first window that correspond to the one or more edges of the first window based on a movement vector associated with the first user input. In response to detecting the first user input, and in accordance with a determination that the first user input corresponds to a second input type, the device moves the one or more edges of the first window to one or more corresponding edges of the display area while maintaining respective one or more opposite edges of the first window.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus to dynamically distribute privileges among a plurality of processes are described. Each process may have attributes including a privilege to control access to processing resources. A first process may be running with a first privilege prohibited from access to a processing resource. A second process may be running with a second privilege allowed to access the processing resource. The first process may receive a request from the second process to perform a data processing task for the second process. In response, the second privilege may be dynamically transferred to the first process to allow the first process to access the processing resource. The first process may perform operations for the data processing task with the second privilege transferred from the second process.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that captures a stackshot of an executing process is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device detects an interrupt of the process occurring during the execution of the process, where the process execution can be in a kernel space and user space, and the interrupt occurs during the user space. The device further determines whether to capture a stackshot during the interrupt using a penalty function. If the stackshot is to be captured, the device captures the stackshot and saves the stackshot.
