SUSPENSION AND/OR CONTROL OF PROCESSES FOR CONNECTED STANDBY STATE Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC G06F9/44 G06F1/32 

FIELD: computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to computer engineering. Method for transition of computing environment from the standby condition with connection corresponding to the condition with low power consumption of the computing environment, in which specific processes are allowed to be executed, while other processes are either stopped or suspended without execution and/or regulated between the state of execution and the suspended state without execution, into the execution state and comprises detection of a request for exit from the standby state with a connection associated with the computing environment; and transition of the computing environment from the standby state with connection into the execution state, containing: for corresponding suspended processes, to which there was assigned the suspension class, recovery of functionality for implementation of the suspended process so that after restoration into the execution such processes are performed as usual, while the suspension class corresponds to the fact whether the process can be suspended without the failure of the computing environment and/or of the mentioned process and/or on the fact whether the limited functionality of execution associated with the said process, is desired; and for respective regulated processes, assigned with a regulation class, recovery of functionality of execution for a regulated process by cancelling application of the regulation plan which was applied to the regulated process; at that, the regulation class corresponds to the fact whether the process can be regulated without the computer system failure and/or whether the limited functionality of execution associated with the said process, is desired; besides, the functionality of execution is restored for a regulated process until restoration of execution for the suspended process for processes which were assigned with a privileged class, and for corresponding processes which were assigned with a privileged class - continuation of execution functionality; at that, the execution functionality was allowed during the standby state with connection, while the privileged class corresponds to the fact, whether the process can be regulated without the computer system failure, and whether the limited execution functionality associated with the process, is desired.

EFFECT: technical result consists in reduction of the time required for complete awakening of the computing environment from the standby state, into a renewed execution state, renewal of which took place in the standby state with connection.
