ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments provide for a layered approach to developing operating system platform components such as a color management system. This can be accomplished by providing new functionality and by utilizing an existing API module comprising existing APIs to receive input that can be associated with either current functionality, legacy functionality, or the new functionality. Furthermore, a rule-based module conceptually located below the operating system's existing public API module can be used to determine the appropriate processing functionality for the received input—which can then be processed accordingly.
