Abstract
One or more applications are started in suspend mode during a boot up sequence of the operating system. The one or more applications are added to a suspended list. The system continues by monitoring a plurality of application programming interface (API) calls made from the application layer to one or more graphic rendering modules; and processing the plurality of API calls to the one or more graphic rendering modules based on whether each API call belongs to an application on the suspended list. Fast starting a channel application can also be done in a predictive manner via the search function or based on feeds in a notification area.
