Auto-waking of a suspended os in a dockable system

A method for configuring a mobile computing device to multiple user environments, the mobile computing device concurrently running a mobile operating system in a first execution environment on a shared kernel and a desktop operating system in a second execution environment on the shared kernel, the method comprising:

• registering a daemon process of the desktop operating system through an inter-process communication channel in the shared kernel to receive remotable objects from a desktop monitor service of the mobile operating system;
• detecting a docking event of the mobile computing device with a secondary terminal environment;
• notifying the desktop monitor service of the mobile operating system of the docking event;
• determining, by the desktop monitor service, an action to be performed by the daemon process of the desktop operating system based on a user experience profile of the docked secondary terminal environment;
• and
• sending, from the desktop monitor service to the daemon process of the desktop operating system through the inter-process communication channel, the action to be performed.

A method for configuring a mobile computing device to multiple user environments, the mobile computing device running a mobile operating system in a first execution environment on a shared kernel and running a desktop operating system in a second execution environment concurrently on the shared kernel, the method comprising:

• detecting, in the mobile computing device, a docking event of the mobile computing device with a secondary terminal environment;
• determining that the mobile computing device is not docked to a secondary terminal environment;
• and
• suspending, in response to determining that the mobile computing device is not docked to a secondary terminal environment, the desktop operating system.
