Abstract

Machine-readable media, methods, apparatus and system for caption detection are described. In some embodiments, during a non-quiesce state of a system, a configuration data for a configuration update of a configurable device of the system may be calculated, and it may be determined whether the configuration data is final configuration data or intermediate configuration data, wherein the final configuration data may be used to directly enact the configuration update during a quiesce state of the system, while the intermediate configuration data is used to indirectly enact the configuration update during the quiesce state of the system. Further, during the non-quiesce state of the system, if the configuration data is the intermediate configuration data, then codes associated with the configuration data may be determined, wherein the codes may be used to operate the configuration data to obtain the final configuration data during the quiesce state of the system.
