ABSTRACT:
An interface for handing off computer system information. The interface has a data structure stored on a computer readable medium. The data structure has fields for component data pertaining to components of a computer system. The data structure is available to be populated by a first program filling in component data using identifiers for locating the component data in the data structure. The first program is able to discover components. The component data is accessible by a second program indexing the data structure with the identifiers. The second computer program is for assisting an operating system gain the component data.
