Abstract
An embedded processor device, communicating over a broadcast file system (BFS) with a data carousel, stores a file that specifies for one or more applications the application and all resource files required for at least start up of each application. Rather than reading a single application file from the BFS and then reading each of the resource files in a serial fashion, the embedded process or device concurrently reads the application file and any necessary resource files as they are broadcast, enabling all necessary files to be read during a single cycle of the data carousel.
