Abstract
According to a first aspect, execution logic is configured to perform a linear capability transfer operation which transfers a physical capability from a partition of a first software modules to a partition of a second of software module without retaining it in the partition of the first. According to a second, alternative or additional aspect, the execution logic is configured to perform a sharding operation whereby a physical capability is divided into at least two instances, which may later be combined.
