All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

In the description of the present application, it is to be understood that the terms "first," "second," and the like are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. In the description of the present application, it is to be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the words "comprise" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of steps or elements is not limited to only those steps or elements listed, but may alternatively include other steps or elements not listed, or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood in a specific case by those of ordinary skill in the art. Further, in the description of the present application, "a plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specified. "and/or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, meaning that there may be three relationships, e.g., a and/or B, which may mean: a exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. The character "/" generally indicates that the former and latter associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

In the related art, configuration management of a Profile configuration file of an eSIM card device is usually performed by an auxiliary device (e.g., a main device of the eSIM card device), and a server (understood as an eSIM service platform) providing a Profile download update service is connected through the auxiliary device, so that the auxiliary device downloads the configuration file from the eSIM service platform, and the auxiliary device transmits the configuration file to the eSIM card device, so that the eSIM card device performs configuration management on the received configuration file. However, in this way, during the process of performing relevant operations on the configuration file (downloading, transmitting the configuration file, etc.) by the auxiliary device (such as the main device of the eSIM card device), there are security risks that information of the configuration file is leaked, and the configuration file is intercepted and modified during transmission.

The present application will be described in detail with reference to specific examples.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, a profile management method is proposed, applied to a terminal, which can be implemented by means of a computer program and can be run on a profile management device based on the von neumann architecture. The computer program may be integrated into the application or may run as a separate tool-like application.

Specifically, the configuration file management method includes:

step S101: the method comprises the steps of obtaining configuration path information corresponding to an eSIM card device, wherein an eSIM management platform corresponding to the configuration path information stores a configuration file of the eSIM card device.

The configuration path information is address information of an eSIM management platform, a configuration file of an eSIM card device is stored in the eSIM management platform, and in practical application, the configuration path information may be used for a corresponding device to acquire the configuration file of the eSIM card device from the eSIM management platform, for example, may be used for the eSIM card device to acquire the configuration file.

The configuration file can be understood as a collection of settings and files for a system loading a desired environment during normal use of the eSIM card device (e.g., during initialization operations, during system updates). The configuration file generally adopts an eUICC remote configuration specification of Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA), and mainly carries information such as international Mobile subscriber identity (international Mobile subscriber identity) number, authentication parameters, and the like.

In practical applications, when an eSIM card device is involved in eSIM configuration management, corresponding operations on a configuration file (Profile) are involved, such as Profile customization, Profile download/installation, Profile activation/deactivation/deletion, and the like. The present embodiment does not limit operations specifically related to Profile.

The eSIM management platform is used for providing corresponding eSIM services and eSIM management for the outside. In this application, the configuration path information may be understood as address information of an eSIM management platform, such as a network address, and to the outside, a corresponding device (such as an eSIM card device and a terminal) may obtain a corresponding eSIM service or eSIM management through the configuration path information, such as obtaining a configuration file of the eSIM card device.

Specifically, the terminal may store in advance device management information of the eSIM card device, where the device management information includes configuration path information of the eSIM management platform corresponding to the eSIM card device when performing eSIM configuration management (e.g., activation, deactivation, and deletion of a configuration file).

In a possible implementation manner, the configuration path information may be obtained by the eSIM card device, that is, the terminal may obtain a configuration code corresponding to the eSIM card device, and identify the configuration path information corresponding to the configuration code.

In addition, the configuration code may also be attached to the periphery of the eSIM card device, that is, the configuration code may be printed when the eSIM card device leaves a factory, and then attached to the periphery of the eSIM card device, so that the terminal may directly and conveniently scan the configuration code in a later use process.

Step S102: and sending a file management instruction to the eSIM card device based on the configuration path information, wherein the file management instruction is used for instructing the eSIM card device to acquire the configuration file and perform configuration management on the configuration file.

The instructions are instructions and commands that direct the operation of the eSIM card device, and may be understood as code that specifies the execution of certain operations or certain controls implemented by functions. The file management instruction may be understood as a code that directs the eSIM card device to perform a corresponding configuration management function, and the eSIM card device may acquire a configuration file in response to the file management instruction and perform configuration management based on the configuration file.

In a possible implementation manner, the terminal may send the obtained configuration path information to the eSIM card device through a communication connection based on the communication connection with the eSIM card device, and after the eSIM card device receives the configuration path information, the eSIM card device may access the eSIM management platform based on the configuration path information, so as to obtain a configuration file stored by the eSIM management platform and perform configuration management on the configuration file, such as Profile customization, Profile download/installation, Profile activation/deactivation/deletion, and the like.

In an embodiment of the present application, a terminal may obtain configuration path information corresponding to an eSIM card device, an eSIM management platform corresponding to the configuration path information stores a configuration file of the eSIM card device, and then sends a file management instruction to the eSIM card device based on the configuration path information, and the eSIM card device may obtain the configuration file based on the file management instruction and perform configuration management on the configuration file. The terminal does not need to directly acquire the configuration file from the eSIM management platform, so that the conditions of configuration information leakage and the like when the terminal performs related operations (such as downloading, transmission, storage and the like) on the configuration file can be avoided, the safety of the eSIM card equipment configuration management is improved, and the risk of the leakage of the configuration information is avoided; and the terminal can transmit a file management instruction based on the configuration path information with low cost, and then the eSIM card equipment acquires the configuration file, so that the transmission cost of configuration management is reduced, and the convenience of configuration management is improved.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart illustrating another embodiment of a method for managing a configuration file according to the present application. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:

step S201: the communication quality of at least one current communication mode is acquired, and a target communication mode is determined based on the communication quality of each communication mode.

Specifically, the communication mode is a communication mode with the eSIM management platform, the communication mode between the eSIM management platform and the terminal can be a wired communication mode and a wireless communication mode, and the terminal can be connected with the eSIM management platform through a wired communication interface by using a Universal Serial Bus (USB) so as to establish a wired communication connection mode with the eSIM management platform; the terminal can also establish a communication connection mode with the eSIM management platform in a wireless communication connection mode, and the wireless communication connection mode can be based on communication modes such as the internet, a mobile network (such as a 5G mobile network), WIFI, a ZigBee protocol (ZigBee), a local area network and the like.

Specifically, in the present application, the communication connection between the eSIM management platform and the eSIM card device is generally determined based on the terminal, and in practical applications, the eSIM card device establishes a communication connection with the eSIM management platform based on a corresponding communication mode indicated by the terminal, and then performs interactive communication with the eSIM management platform based on the communication connection, for example, a configuration file is acquired from the eSIM management platform.

In one possible embodiment:

1. the communication quality of at least one current communication mode is obtained, and communication safety evaluation is carried out on the communication quality of each communication mode to obtain a communication quality score corresponding to each communication mode;

specifically, the terminal has a communication state monitoring mechanism, and can monitor the communication state of at least one current communication mode; the terminal can monitor the communication link corresponding to each current communication mode through a communication state monitoring mechanism, specifically, the server can obtain at least one communication parameter of the communication link corresponding to each communication mode and calculate the communication quality score according to each communication parameter; judging the communication link state of each communication mode based on the communication quality score, which specifically comprises the following steps:

the server can evaluate the communication quality of the communication link corresponding to each current communication mode, calculate a communication quality score according to each communication parameter, determine the communication condition of uplink or downlink data of the link between the terminal and the eSIM management platform according to the communication quality score, wherein the communication parameter can be one or more of the communication parameters such as transmitting/receiving rate, signal energy, data packet loss rate in the communication process, data retransmission rate in the communication process, and the like, and calculate the communication quality score according to each communication parameter, so that the current communication quality is measured.

Optionally, the terminal may access the eSIM management platform, obtain the communication quality of the current at least one communication method supported by the current eSIM management platform, receive the communication quality score of the at least one communication method fed back by the eSIM management platform, and measure the current communication quality based on the communication quality score.

The calculation method may set different or same weight values for each communication parameter, perform weighting calculation based on each communication parameter and the weight values, and obtain the current communication quality score

One calculation method may be to set reference parameter characteristics (such as a reference indication value, a reference indication range, a reference indication distance, and the like) for each communication parameter, calculate difference characteristic information (such as a difference communication parameter value) for each network communication parameter in at least one network communication parameter and the parameter characteristics corresponding to the network communication parameter, score according to the difference characteristic information, and set a scoring level when scoring is performed according to the difference characteristic information, for example, set three levels: level a > level B > C, further paraphrased: and calculating a differential communication value a of the communication parameter A1 and the reference indication value A, and taking the score corresponding to the grade B as the current communication quality score when the differential communication value a reaches the value corresponding to the grade B.

Wherein, the communication parameters include, but are not limited to, Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP) of uplink/downlink data signals of the current communication mode, Received Signal Code Power (RSCP), the evaluation of the communication link state corresponding to the current communication scheme may be implemented by at least one of parameters such as a Ratio of received chip Signal strength to Noise strength (EcIo)/Ratio of power PER modulation Bit to Noise spectral density (EcNo)/Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)/Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), Bit Error Rate (BER)/block Error Rate (BLER)/Packet Error Rate (PER) of the Signal received by the antenna, and the like, or may be implemented by measuring other parameters.

In a possible implementation manner, the obtained communication parameters may be input into a trained score determination model, and communication quality scores of corresponding communication modes are output. The method comprises the steps of obtaining communication sample data in an actual application environment, extracting characteristic information, marking a score corresponding to the communication sample data, wherein the characteristic information comprises at least one communication parameter (RSSI, SNR, RSCP and the like), and creating a score determining model. The score determination model may be trained by using a large number of communication samples, for example, the score determination model may be implemented based on at least one of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) model, a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), a model, an embedding (embedding) model, a Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) model, and a Logistic Regression (LR) model, and the score determination model may be trained based on sample data labeled with a score, so that the trained score determination model may be obtained.

3. And determining a target communication mode based on the communication quality scores corresponding to the communication modes.

Specifically, after determining the communication quality scores corresponding to the communication manners, a target communication manner with the highest communication quality score may be selected.

Step S202: and sending communication connection information corresponding to the target communication mode to the eSIM card device, wherein the communication connection information is used for indicating the eSIM card device to perform network communication based on the communication connection information.

The communication connection information is used for the eSIM card equipment to perform network communication in a target communication mode. The communication connection information may be communication authentication information, communication identification information, communication password information, etc. corresponding to the target communication mode.

After determining the target communication mode, the terminal generates communication connection information corresponding to the target communication mode, and then the communication connection information can be sent to the eSIM card device based on the communication connection with the eSIM card device; the eSIM card device, upon receipt, can then conduct network communication in a target communication manner based on the communication connection information.

Step S203: and acquiring configuration path information corresponding to the eSIM card equipment.

Specifically, refer to step S101, which is not described herein again.

Step S204: and generating a first file management instruction carrying the configuration path information.

According to some embodiments, the configuration path information is address information of an eSIM management platform, a configuration file of an eSIM card device is stored on the eSIM management platform, and in practical applications, the configuration path information may be used for a corresponding device to acquire the configuration file of the eSIM card device from the eSIM management platform, for example, may be used for the eSIM card device to acquire the configuration file.

When the terminal acquires the configuration path information corresponding to the eSIM card device, the configuration file of the eSIM card device is generally not downloaded directly from the eSIM management platform, because the risk of leakage of the configuration information in the configuration file exists in the device transfer process, such as being intercepted by malicious devices. Before the eSIM card device performs configuration management, it is generally difficult to perform network communication based on the eSIM communication function, and in order to implement configuration of the eSIM communication function, such as activation of eSIM communication, update of eSIM communication, and the like, the terminal may generate a first file management instruction carrying configuration path information after acquiring the configuration path information from the eSIM management platform.

Step S205: and sending the first file management instruction to the eSIM card device, where the first file management instruction is used to instruct the eSIM card device to acquire the configuration file corresponding to the configuration path information from the eSIM management platform and perform configuration management on the configuration file.

According to some embodiments, the terminal may send the generated first file management instruction including the configuration path information to the eSIM card device through the communication connection based on the communication connection with the eSIM card device, and after receiving the first file management instruction, the eSIM card device obtains the configuration path information carried by the first file management instruction in response to the file management instruction, so as to access the eSIM management platform based on the configuration path information, thereby obtaining the configuration file stored by the eSIM management platform and performing configuration management on the configuration file, such as Profile customization, Profile download/installation, Profile activation/deactivation/deletion, and the like.

Step S206: acquiring a ciphertext configuration file of the eSIM card equipment from the eSIM management platform based on the configuration path information, and generating a second file management instruction;

the ciphertext configuration file is generated by encrypting the eSIM management platform in a preset encryption mode, in the application, a decryption mode of the ciphertext configuration file is invisible to the outside, namely, the terminal cannot decrypt the ciphertext configuration file even after acquiring the ciphertext configuration file, and meanwhile, because the encryption mode of the ciphertext configuration file is only visible to the eSIM management platform and the eSIM card equipment, even in the transmission process of the ciphertext configuration file, if the terminal sends the ciphertext configuration file to the eSIM card equipment, the terminal is intercepted, the safety risk of information leakage cannot occur.

Optionally, the preset encryption mode may be an algorithm based on a symmetric encryption mode, where the symmetric encryption mode is that the encrypted information sender and the encrypted information receiver use the same key for encryption/decryption. The algorithm based on the symmetric encryption mode can be a DES encryption algorithm, a tripleDES encryption algorithm, an RC2/RC4/RC5 encryption algorithm, a Blowfish encryption algorithm and the like. In the application, the eSIM management platform encrypts the original configuration file based on the key uniquely mapped with the eSIM card device to generate the ciphertext configuration file.

Optionally, the preset encryption manner may refer to an algorithm based on an asymmetric encryption algorithm, where the asymmetric encryption algorithm includes, but is not limited to, an RSA encryption algorithm, an Elgamal encryption algorithm, a knapsack algorithm, a Rabin encryption algorithm, an ECC (elliptic curve cryptography algorithm), and the like. The eSIM management platform stores a unique public key uniquely mapped with the eSIM card equipment, and encrypts the original configuration file by adopting the public key to generate a ciphertext configuration file. The eSIM card equipment stores the unique private key, and can decrypt the encrypted configuration file by using the unique private key after acquiring the encrypted configuration file.

Further, the second file management instruction is used to instruct the eSIM card device to perform decryption configuration management on the configuration file, that is, to decrypt the ciphertext configuration file to obtain an original ciphertext file, so that the original ciphertext file is configured and managed.

Step S207: and sending the second file management instruction and the ciphertext configuration file to the eSIM card device, where the second file management instruction is used to instruct the eSIM card device to perform decryption configuration management on the ciphertext configuration file.

In one possible embodiment:

1. when the terminal generates the second file management instruction, the terminal can generate the second file management instruction carrying the configuration path information; at this time, the key for decrypting the ciphertext configuration file is usually only saved in the eSIM management platform, and at this time, only the eSIM card device needs to access based on the configuration path information. The eSIM management platform can obtain the configuration key for decrypting the ciphertext configuration file.

2. The terminal may send the second file management instruction and the ciphertext configuration file to the eSIM card device; after receiving a second file management instruction and the ciphertext configuration file sent by the terminal, the eSIM card device may, in response to the second file management instruction, access the eSIM management platform based on the configuration path information, thereby obtaining a configuration key for the ciphertext configuration file, and after obtaining the key, perform configuration management on the configuration file based on the configuration key, such as Profile customization, Profile downloading/installation, Profile activation/deactivation/deletion, and the like.

In one possible embodiment:

1. generating a second file management instruction;

optionally, the eSIM card device may store a key for decrypting the ciphertext configuration file. The terminal can directly generate a second file management instruction, and at this time, the second file management instruction does not need to carry configuration path information.

2. The terminal sends the second file management instruction and the ciphertext configuration file to the eSIM card device, and after receiving the second file management instruction and the ciphertext configuration file sent by the terminal, the eSIM card device may respond to the second file management instruction, and perform configuration management on the ciphertext configuration file based on a pre-stored configuration key.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, a profile management method is proposed, applied to an eSIM card device, which can be implemented depending on a computer program, and can be run on a von neumann-based profile management apparatus. The computer program may be integrated into the application or may run as a separate tool-like application.

Specifically, the configuration file management method includes:

step S301: and receiving a file management instruction sent by the terminal.

According to some embodiments, the file management instruction is generated by the terminal based on the acquired configuration path information, and the eSIM management platform corresponding to the configuration path information stores the configuration file of the eSIM card device.

In a specific implementation, the eSIM card device may generate a configuration code, the configuration path information obtained by the terminal may be obtained based on the configuration code, the configuration code may be in the form of a two-dimensional code, an applet code, a string of random numbers, a combination of letters or the like, when the terminal needs to acquire the configuration path information, the user can turn on the eSIM card device, for example, by pressing a physical key of the electrical stimulation apparatus, so that the eSIM card device generates the configuration code, the eSIM card device then generates a configuration code (e.g., two-dimensional code), and the terminal scans the configuration code, identifying the configuration path information corresponding to the configuration code by carrying out identification processing on the configuration code, the terminal then generates a file management instruction based on the configuration path information, and after the terminal generates the file management instruction, the file management instruction may be transmitted to the eSIM card device, and the eSIM card device may receive the file management instruction transmitted by the terminal based on a communication connection with the terminal.

Step S402: and performing network communication based on the communication connection information.

According to some embodiments, after determining the target communication method, the terminal generates communication connection information corresponding to the target communication method, and then can transmit the communication connection information to the eSIM card device based on the communication connection with the eSIM card device; after the eSIM card device receives the communication connection information, network communication can be performed in a target communication mode based on the communication connection information, for example, the communication connection information can be a WIFI name and a WIFI password, and then the eSIM card device scans a WIFI frequency point corresponding to the WIFI name after receiving the communication connection information, and then connects the WIFI frequency point based on the WIFI password, thereby performing network communication.

Step S403: receiving a file management instruction sent by a terminal;

according to some embodiments, the file management instruction may be either a first file management instruction or a second file management instruction.

Step S404: and when the file management instruction is a first file management instruction, extracting the configuration path information carried by the first file management instruction, and acquiring the configuration file from the eSIM management platform corresponding to the configuration path information.

According to some embodiments, when the terminal acquires the configuration path information corresponding to the eSIM card device, the configuration file of the eSIM card device is generally not downloaded directly from the eSIM management platform, because the risk of leakage of the configuration information in the configuration file exists in the device transfer process, such as being intercepted by malicious devices. Before the eSIM card device performs configuration management, it is generally difficult to perform network communication based on an eSIM communication function, and in order to implement configuration of the eSIM communication function, such as activating eSIM communication, updating eSIM communication, and the like, the terminal may generate a first file management instruction carrying configuration path information after acquiring the configuration path information from the eSIM management platform; when the terminal sends the first file management instruction to the eSIM card device, the eSIM card device extracts the configuration path information carried by the first file management instruction in response to the file management instruction, so that the eSIM management platform can be accessed based on the configuration path information, and configuration files stored by the eSIM management platform and configuration management of the configuration files, such as Profile customization, Profile downloading/installation, Profile activation/deactivation/deletion, and the like, are obtained.

Step S405: and when the file management instruction is a second file management instruction, receiving the ciphertext configuration file sent by the terminal based on the second file management instruction, wherein the ciphertext configuration file is acquired by the terminal from the eSIM management platform corresponding to the configuration path information.

The encryption method of the ciphertext configuration file is invisible to the outside, namely, the terminal cannot decrypt the ciphertext configuration file even after acquiring the ciphertext configuration file, and meanwhile, because the encryption method of the ciphertext configuration file is only visible to the eSIM management platform and the eSIM card equipment, even in the transmission process of the ciphertext configuration file, if the terminal sends the ciphertext configuration file to the eSIM card equipment, the ciphertext configuration file is intercepted and cannot generate the safety risk of information leakage.

Step S406: and decrypting the ciphertext configuration file to obtain a target configuration file, and configuring and managing the target configuration file.

In a feasible implementation manner, the eSIM card device may pre-store a configuration key, where the configuration key is set and stored when the eSIM card device leaves a factory, and after receiving the ciphertext configuration file of the terminal, the eSIM card device may obtain the pre-stored configuration key, and decrypt the ciphertext configuration file by using a decryption method corresponding to the configuration key, so as to obtain an original target configuration file.

In a feasible implementation manner, the second file management instruction may carry the configuration path information, the eSIM card device may access the eSIM management platform based on the configuration path information, and then obtain the configuration key for the ciphertext configuration file from the eSIM management platform, for example, send a key obtaining request for the ciphertext configuration file to the eSIM management platform, the eSIM management platform sends the configuration key to the eSIM card device in response to the key obtaining request, and the eSIM card device decrypts the ciphertext configuration file based on the configuration key, so that the target configuration file may be obtained;

step S407: and configuring and managing the target configuration file.

Specifically, refer to step S302, which is not described herein again.

In an embodiment of the present application, an e-terminal may obtain configuration path information corresponding to an eSIM card device, an eSIM management platform corresponding to the configuration path information stores a configuration file of the eSIM card device, and then sends a file management instruction to the eSIM card device based on the configuration path information, and the eSIM card device may obtain the configuration file based on the file management instruction and perform configuration management on the configuration file. The terminal does not need to directly acquire the configuration file from the eSIM management platform, so that the conditions of configuration information leakage and the like when the terminal performs related operations (such as downloading, transmission, storage and the like) on the configuration file can be avoided, the safety of the eSIM card equipment configuration management is improved, and the risk of the leakage of the configuration information is avoided; and the terminal can transmit a file management instruction based on the configuration path information with low cost, and then the eSIM card equipment acquires the configuration file, so that the transmission cost of configuration management is reduced, and the convenience of configuration management is improved.

Referring to fig. 13, a block diagram of an electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. The electronic device in the present application may comprise one or more of the following components: a processor 110, a memory 120, an input device 130, an output device 140, and a bus 150. The processor 110, memory 120, input device 130, and output device 140 may be connected by a bus 150.

Processor 110 may include one or more processing cores. The processor 110 connects various parts within the overall electronic device using various interfaces and lines, and performs various functions of the electronic device 100 and processes data by executing or executing instructions, programs, code sets, or instruction sets stored in the memory 120 and calling data stored in the memory 120. Alternatively, the processor 110 may be implemented in hardware using at least one of Digital Signal Processing (DSP), field-programmable gate Array (FPGA), and Programmable Logic Array (PLA). The processor 110 may integrate one or more of a Central Processing Unit (CPU), a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), a modem, and the like. The CPU mainly processes an operating system, a user interface, an application program and the like; the GPU is used for rendering and drawing display content; the modem is used to handle wireless communications. It is understood that the modem may not be integrated into the processor 110, but may be implemented by a communication chip.

The Memory 120 may include a Random Access Memory (RAM) or a read-only Memory (ROM). Optionally, the memory 120 includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The memory 120 may be used to store instructions, programs, code sets, or instruction sets. The memory 120 may include a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area may store instructions for implementing an operating system, instructions for implementing at least one function (such as a touch function, a sound playing function, an image playing function, etc.), instructions for implementing various method embodiments described below, and the like, and the operating system may be an Android (Android) system, including a system based on Android system depth development, an IOS system developed by apple, including a system based on IOS system depth development, or other systems. The data storage area may also store data created by the electronic device during use, such as phone books, audio and video data, chat log data, and the like.

Referring to fig. 14, the memory 120 may be divided into an operating system space, where an operating system is run, and a user space, where native and third-party applications are run. In order to ensure that different third-party application programs can achieve a better operation effect, the operating system allocates corresponding system resources for the different third-party application programs. However, the requirements of different application scenarios in the same third-party application program on system resources are different, for example, in a local resource loading scenario, the third-party application program has a higher requirement on the disk reading speed; in the animation rendering scene, the third-party application program has a high requirement on the performance of the GPU. The operating system and the third-party application program are independent from each other, and the operating system cannot sense the current application scene of the third-party application program in time, so that the operating system cannot perform targeted system resource adaptation according to the specific application scene of the third-party application program.

In order to enable the operating system to distinguish a specific application scenario of the third-party application program, data communication between the third-party application program and the operating system needs to be opened, so that the operating system can acquire current scenario information of the third-party application program at any time, and further perform targeted system resource adaptation based on the current scenario.

Taking an operating system as an Android system as an example, programs and data stored in the memory 120 are as shown in fig. 15, and a Linux kernel layer 320, a system runtime library layer 340, an application framework layer 360, and an application layer 380 may be stored in the memory 120, where the Linux kernel layer 320, the system runtime library layer 340, and the application framework layer 360 belong to an operating system space, and the application layer 380 belongs to a user space. The Linux kernel layer 320 provides underlying drivers for various hardware of the electronic device, such as a display driver, an audio driver, a camera driver, a bluetooth driver, a Wi-Fi driver, power management, and the like. The system runtime library layer 340 provides main feature support for the Android system through some C/C + + libraries. For example, the SQLite library provides support for a database, the OpenGL/ES library provides support for 3D drawing, the Webkit library provides support for a browser kernel, and the like. Also provided in the system runtime library layer 340 is an Android runtime library (Android runtime), which mainly provides some core libraries that can allow developers to write Android applications using the Java language. The application framework layer 360 provides various APIs that may be used in building an application, and developers may build their own applications by using these APIs, such as activity management, window management, view management, notification management, content provider, package management, session management, resource management, and location management. At least one application program runs in the application layer 380, and the application programs may be native application programs carried by the operating system, such as a contact program, a short message program, a clock program, a camera application, and the like; or a third-party application developed by a third-party developer, such as a game application, an instant messaging program, a photo beautification program, a profile management program, and the like.

Taking an operating system as an IOS system as an example, programs and data stored in the memory 120 are shown in fig. 16, and the IOS system includes: a Core operating system Layer 420(Core OS Layer), a Core Services Layer 440(Core Services Layer), a Media Layer 460(Media Layer), and a touchable Layer 480(Cocoa Touch Layer). The kernel operating system layer 420 includes an operating system kernel, drivers, and underlying program frameworks that provide functionality closer to hardware for use by program frameworks located in the core services layer 440. The core services layer 440 provides system services and/or program frameworks, such as a Foundation framework, an account framework, an advertisement framework, a data storage framework, a network connection framework, a geographic location framework, a motion framework, and so forth, as required by the application. The media layer 460 provides audiovisual related interfaces for applications, such as graphics image related interfaces, audio technology related interfaces, video technology related interfaces, audio video transmission technology wireless playback (AirPlay) interfaces, and the like. Touchable layer 480 provides various common interface-related frameworks for application development, and touchable layer 480 is responsible for user touch interaction operations on the electronic device. Such as a local notification service, a remote push service, an advertising framework, a game tool framework, a messaging User Interface (UI) framework, a User Interface UIKit framework, a map framework, and so forth.

In the framework illustrated in FIG. 16, the framework associated with most applications includes, but is not limited to: a base framework in the core services layer 440 and a UIKit framework in the touchable layer 480. The base framework provides many basic object classes and data types, provides the most basic system services for all applications, and is UI independent. While the class provided by the UIKit framework is a base UI class library for creating touch-based user interfaces, iOS applications can provide UIs based on the UIKit framework, so it provides an infrastructure for applications for building user interfaces, drawing, processing and user interaction events, responding to gestures, and so on.

The Android system can be referred to as a mode and a principle for realizing data communication between the third-party application program and the operating system in the IOS system, and details are not repeated herein.
