Method for exchanging information between operating systems coexisting on the same computer
First Claim
1. Method for communication between at least two computer processes, called client processes (13, 23), executed at the same time in a computer system called a hardware platform (10) comprising one or more processors and storage means, at least part of which constitutes an addressable memory area that can be used as a working memory, these client processes being executed in different operating systems (11, 21, respectively) that manage the utilization of the system'"'"'s resources by their client processes and are not directly compatible with one another, characterized in that these client processes write or read or modify information called exchange data (15), in at least one common part, called an exchange memory (101), of the addressable memory of the hardware platform.

Abstract
The present invention concerns a method for exchanging information between processes, tasks or computer applications executed by different operating systems coexisting on the same computer or the same hardware platform.
This method allows communication between at least two client processes (13, 23) executed at the same time in a hardware platform (10) comprising one or more processors and storage means, at least part of which constitutes an addressable memory area that can be used as a working memory. These client processes are executed in two different operating systems (11, 21, respectively) that are not directly compatible with one another. The method is characterized in that these client processes write or read or modify information called exchange data (15) in at least one common part, called an exchange memory (101), of the addressable memory of the hardware platform.
