Abstract: A method of making a computer booting an operation system from
a flash card which is plugged in multi-card reader is disclosed. The
multi-card reader does not care the card is located at first socket or not.
The method comprises: at first, a bootable card having a master bootable
record or reserve sector written a bootable pattern thereon is prepared.
Then if the BIOS of the host computer requests a bootable pattern from
the USB storage apparatus, the firmware of the multi-card reader is then
provided a logic unit number(LUN) =0 to the host computer if there is a
bootable flash card seated at a socket. The socket is not need to be the
first socket but arbitrary. Thus, the USB card reader will be convenient for
any user.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for resource allocation in a
system which includes work items which are to be completed in both business time and real time.
Work items are placed in a delta queue which has a calendar associated therewith indicating
business time and non-business time for resources associated with the delta queue. When the
calendar associated with the delta queue enters into a non-business time, a scheduler pushes an
item at the head of the delta queue which corresponds to the amount of non-business time. Work
items in the delta queue are thus delayed by the appropriate amount of time corresponding to the
non-business time.
