Systems and methods are described for modifying input and output (I/O) to an object storage service by implementing one or more owner-specified functions to I/O requests. A function can implement a data manipulation, such as filtering out sensitive data before reading or writing the data. The functions can be applied prior to implementing a request method (e.g., GET or PUT) specified within the I/O request, such that the data to which the method is applied my not match the object specified within the request. For example, a user may request to obtain (e.g., GET) a data set. The data set may be passed to a function that filters sensitive data to the data set, and the GET request method may then be applied to the output of the function. In this manner, owners of objects on an object storage service are provided with greater control of objects stored or retrieved from the service.

An electronic device includes a narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT) circuit; a shared central processor to control the narrowband internet of things circuit; a shared memory to store data or code from the shared central processor; and a communicator controlled by the shared central processor. The communicator stores the data or the code in the shared memory.

Provided are a method, a device and a user terminal for loading an application, and relates to the field of Internet technology. The method for loading an application is applied to a user terminal, and the method includes: in response to a function enabling instruction, matching independent functional components of a corresponding application program, where the application program is packaged in advance according to the implemented functions to include multiple functional components, and the functional components include an independent functional component; obtaining an executable file corresponding to the independent functional component; and loading the executable file corresponding to the independent functional component. According to the present invention, a corresponding executable file is loaded according to a user's needs, such that the application is loaded in a way more flexible and quicker, the storage space occupied by the application for a long period of time is reduced.

Systems and techniques for dynamic code execution location in heterogeneous memory are described herein. In an system having a first class of memory and second class of memory that are both byte-addressable, an interpreter may be initialized to execute a program from the first class of memory. The initialization may include locating an Interpreter Routine Address Table (IRIT) in the second class of memory and creating counters for routines in the IRIT. A counter for a routine may be modified as it is referenced from the IRIT during execution. The routine may be moved from the first class of memory to the second class of memory in response to the counter passing a threshold. An entry in the IRIT for the routine may be updated with an address in the second class of memory corresponding to the routine.

System and methods for booting a system-on-chip (SOC) in an enhanced memory mode are described herein. In one aspect, an enhanced memory mode indicator may be read to create a trusted channel to a non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM). The NVRAM may be logically connected to the SOC. In an aspect, the NVRAM may be secured prior to the creation of the trusted channel. Once the secure channel to NVRAM has been created, the SOC may operate in an enhanced memory mode. Prior to the SOC powering down, the system may store an indicator operable to enable a subsequent boot of the SOC in the power saving mode. The SOC may be operable to switch between the power saving mode and a normal mode depending on the operational requirements of the portable computing device in which the SOC is implemented.

A method includes using a memory address map, locating a first portion of an application in a first memory and loading a second portion of the application from a second memory. The method includes executing in place from the first memory the first portion of the application, during a first period, and by completion of the loading of the second portion of the application from the second memory. The method further includes executing the second portion of the application during a second period, wherein the first period precedes the second period.

Various embodiments include methods and devices for implementing external paging and swapping for dynamic modules on a computing device. Embodiments may include assigning static virtual addresses to a base image and dynamic modules of a static image of firmware of the computing device from a virtual address space for the static image, decompose static image into the base image and the dynamic modules, load the base image to an execution memory during a boot time from first partition of a storage memory, reserve a swap pool in the execution memory during the boot time, and load a dynamic module of the dynamic modules to the swap pool from a second partition of storage memory during a run time.
