1. One or more processor-readable storage media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform acts comprising:
- generating a processor-executable instruction stream from one or more constituent components; and
constructing an operating-system process comprising the generated processor-executable instruction stream, the operating-system process with its generated processor-executable instruction stream being unalterable once the operating-system process is constructed;
based on, at least in part, the generated processor-executable instruction stream, creating at least one fixed identity for the operating-system process and associating the created fixed identity with the operating-system process, the fixed identity identifying the constructed and unalterable operating-system process, the fixed identity being based, at least in part, upon inherent properties of the constructed operating-system process, the fixed identity being representative of the constructed operating-system process, the fixed identity being associated with the constructed operating-system process, and the fixed identity being unalterable once the operating-system process is constructed;
confirming the fixed identity of the generated processor-executable instruction stream of the constructed operating-system process;
responsive to the confirming,when the fixed identity is confirmed, executing the generated processor-executable instruction stream of the constructed operating-system process;
when the fixed identity is unconfirmed, blocking execution of the generated processor-executable instruction stream of the constructed operating-system process.

Abstract
Described herein is an implementation of a technology for the construction, identification, and/or optimization of operating-system processes. At least one implementation, described herein, constructs an operating-system process having the contents as defined by a process manifest. Once constructed, the operating-system process is unalterable.

10. One or more processor-readable storage media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform acts comprising:
-
generating a processor-executable instruction stream from one or more constituent components; constructing an operating-system process comprising the generated processor-executable instruction stream, the operating-system process with its generated processor-executable instruction stream being unalterable once the operating-system process is constructed; creating at least one fixed identity for the operating-system process and associating the created fixed identity with the operating-system process, the fixed identity identifying and being representative of the constructed and unalterable operating-system process, the fixed identity being based, at least in part, upon the generated processor-executable instruction stream, and the fixed identity being unalterable once the operating-system process is constructed. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. One or more processor-readable storage media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform acts comprising:
-
obtaining a constructed operating-system process, which is unalterable once constructed, the constructed operating-system process having constructed-process fixed identity that identifies, is representative of, and is associated with the constructed operating-system process; confirming the constructed-process fixed identity of the constructed operating-system process; if confirmed, then executing the constructed operating-system process.
