Abstract
A method for performing a computation task in a secure processor removably operatively associated with a host including a memory external to the secure processor. The method includes computing a portion of the task in the secure processor, obtaining a setting representation of settings of processing components of the secure processor at the end of the computing step, transmitting the setting representation to the external memory, retrieving the setting representation from the external memory, providing the setting representation to the secure processor, and resuming computation of the task in the secure processor by employing the setting representation.
