MOBILE SYSTEMS WITH SEAMLESS TRANSITION BY ACTIVATING SECOND SUBSYSTEM TO CONTINUE OPERATION OF APPLICATION EXECUTED BY FIRST SUBSYSTEM AS IT ENTERS SLEEP MODE

A computer system includes two or more subsystems. In one example, a first subsystem is executing a multimedia application using data stored in a first storage device. A copy of the data is also stored in a second storage device associated with a second subsystem. The second subsystem may be a dedic...

More Information
Summary:A computer system includes two or more subsystems. In one example, a first subsystem is executing a multimedia application using data stored in a first storage device. A copy of the data is also stored in a second storage device associated with a second subsystem. The second subsystem may be a dedicated multimedia player controller. When the first subsystem is to enter a sleep state, the second subsystem may continue to process the multimedia data stored in the second storage device. The second subsystem may also use the same audio port that the first subsystem was using before it enters the sleep state. Appropriate transition point may be determined by the second subsystem to ease audio disruption.
