ABSTRACT:
One or more processors within a computing system and the processor(s)' associated local memories may be operatively connected to a main memory enabling data transfer between the main memory and the local memories, in which the computing system can carry out actions that may include: generating a pause condition for one or more processors within a computing system; pausing the one or more processors; saving data from a local memory of the one or more processors to the main memory; hibernating the one or more processors; restoring power to the one or more processors; transferring the saved data originating from the one or more processors back to one originating processor or to designated destination processors in the computing system.
