Systems and methods described herein provide for a process for managing continuity of experience between operation of a hybrid computer system in the connected state and the slate component independently in the disconnected state. Embodiments further provide for the continuity of experience for devices operating under multiple processors or multiple platforms. According to embodiments, one or more states and conditions of the connected hybrid computer system may be synchronized with the slate component when the slate component is disconnected from the hybrid computer system. Alternatively, embodiments provide for the synchronization of one or more states and conditions of the independent slate component with the hybrid computer system responsive to connecting the slate component to the hybrid computer system. Non-limiting examples of states and conditions according to embodiments are web pages, applications, documents, lists of recently opened files and web pages, and web browser active tabs.

Embodiments operating shared peripherals in a hybrid computing system are described. Embodiments control one or more shared peripheral devices variously between a primary system and a secondary system via one or more communication links, where the secondary system is detachable from the primary system and operates as an independent computing device in the disconnected state, while operating as a display device in the connected state.

A method for preventing malicious software from execution within a computer system is disclosed. Before any actual execution of an application program on a computer system, the application program needs to be cross-compiled to yield a set of cross-compiled code of the application program. The set of cross-compiled code of the application program can then be executed in an execution module that is capable of recognizing and translating the set of cross-compiled code of the application program to the actual machine code of the processor.

Methods and apparatus to perform efficient branch prediction operations are described. In one embodiment, branch prediction may be performed by utilizing a combination of a bimodal predictor, a plurality of global predictors, and a loop predictor. Other embodiments are also described.
摘要:
Systems and methods of processing branch instructions provide for a bimodal predictor and a plurality of global predictors. The bimodal predictor is coupled to a prediction selector, where the bimodal predictor generates a bimodal prediction for branch instructions. The plurality of global predictors is coupled to the prediction selector, where each global predictor generates a corresponding global prediction for a branch instruction using different history or stew lengths. The prediction selector selects branch predictions from the bimodal prediction and the global predictions in order to arbitrate between predictors. The arbitration, update, and allocation schemes are designed to choose the most accurate predictor for each branch. Lower level predictors are used as filters to increase effective predictor capacity. Allocate and update schemes minimize aliasing between predictors. Branch predictors incorporating a plurality of global predictors in this fashion are more adaptive than conventional predictors with fixed branch history lengths and are able to achieve superior accuracy.
