ABSTRACT:
A system comprising a personal computer configured to operate with another computer connected to a network of computers. The personal computer includes a microchip having a microprocessor with a control unit and at least two processing units, the control unit being configured to allow a user of the personal computer to control the two processing units, and the microchip including a power management component. The personal computer includes an internal firewall configured to allow and/or deny access to portions of the microchip both to the user of the personal computer and to a user of the microchip from the network of computers during a shared use of the microchip; and the internal firewall is configured to deny access to portions of the microchip from the network of computers.
