Abstract
A hybrid environment may be used for addressing application compatibility between a host operating system and one or more application(s) optimized to run on a different ('guest') version of the host operating system. A thunking wrapper consisting of a native thunking layer, a service thunking layer, and a subsystem thunking layer provides translation between the guest application and the host operating system for a seamless interface. Multiple thunking wrappers may be included to support application compatibility between multiple guest operating systems and the host operating system.
