ABSTRACT:
Described herein is a technology facilitating the operation of non-native program modules within a native computing platform. This invention further generally relates to a technology facilitating the interoperability of native and non-native program modules within a native computing platform. More specifically, this technology involves an emulation of the kernel of the non-native operating system. Instead of interacting with the native kernel of the native computing platform, the non-native program modules interact with a non-native kernel emulator. This abstract itself is not intended to limit the scope of this patent. The scope of the present invention is pointed out in the appending claims.
