A method and system for interrupt based NFC pairing is provided. In a passive NFC tag comprising a primary coil and a secondary coil, an electrical signal may be generated in the secondary coil when an NFC reader energizes one or both of the primary and/or secondary coils. The generated electrical signal may be filtered to remove any undesirable signal components such as noise. An interrupt signal, which may initiate pairing, may be generated based on the generated electrical signal. An NFC tag identifier, which comprises an address of the remote control, may be communicated from the NFC tag to the NFC reader and this may initiate the pairing on the NFC reader. The communicated NFC tag identifier may be utilized by the NFC reader for the pairing. The NFC tag identifier may be over-written with a new NFC tag identifier and the new NFC tag identifier may be locked.

Replay-time-only functionalities in a computer program are executed only during replay in a virtual machine and are skipped outside of replay. If a replay-time-only functionality is detected during the replay of a program execution in a virtual machine, the replay may be paused and the virtual machine state may be saved. The replay-time-only core functionality is executed. When this execution is complete, a prior state of the virtual machine may be restored and the replay may be resumed.
