Abstract
A mobile computing device with a mobile operating system and desktop operating system running concurrently and independently on a shared kernel without virtualization. The mobile operating system provides a user experience for the mobile computing device that suits the mobile environment. The desktop operating system provides a full desktop user experience when the mobile computing device is docked to a second user environment. Cross-environment notification and event handling allows the user to be notified of and respond to events occurring within the mobile operating system through the user environment associated with the desktop operating system. Events that may trigger cross-environment notification may be local events and/or remote events. The mobile computing device may be a smartphone running the Android mobile operating system and a full desktop Linux distribution on a modified Android kernel.
