Abstract

A computing device has a virtual machine bus (VM bus) operable in a pipe mode where all incoming data written to the VM bus from a source is passed through to be read from the VM bus by a sink, and a plurality of instantiated virtual machines (VMs). Each VM hosts an instance of an operating system upon an application may be instantiated. Each VM includes a computing object for issuing a call to a component object of another VM, and a VM bus system object for receiving the call and communicating same to a VM bus system object of the another VM by way of the VM bus. The VM bus system object is also for receiving the call from the VM bus system object of the another VM by way of the VM bus and for communicating the received call to the computing object.
