Apparatus and method for providing a safety-critical operating environment (scoe)

This invention describes a computer system designed for highly reliable operations. It uses a main computer (host circuit) to run a secure, isolated 'first partition' within a virtual environment, managed by a Type 2 hypervisor. This system can then create a 'second partition' to run a software module in a special container that guarantees uninterrupted operation, with the first partition verifying the module's safety compliance.

Why it matters: The fundamental challenge of achieving safety-critical certification for complex virtualized environments remains largely unchanged since 2024.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedHeavy software system, hypervisor, non-preemptible container runtime.
