Abstract

Methods and articles of manufacture for hosting a safety critical application on an uncontrolled data processing device are provided. Various checks and combinations of checks including installation, functional, host integrity, coexistence, interoperability, power management, and environment checks are performed at various times to determine if the safety critical application operates properly on the device. The operation of the SCA on the UDPD may be controlled accordingly.

Claims (24)

1 . A method for a safety critical application (SCA), installed on a mobile device in communication with a glucose on-demand device, to execute instructions stored on the mobile device to perform steps of the method, the steps comprising:

detecting, responsive to a predetermined event, a change in a software program currently installed on the mobile device, wherein the change to the software program comprises an update from a prior version of the software program to a current version of the software program, and wherein the detecting the change comprises determining that the current version of the software program does not match the prior version of the software program;

responsive to detecting the change to the software program, initiating a check to identify whether the SCA is incompatible with the current version of the software program, wherein the SCA is a glucose on-demand application, wherein the check is initiated when the SCA is in an active state;

responsive to identifying the SCA is incompatible with the current version of the software program, displaying, on the mobile device, an alert that the SCA is incompatible with the current version of the software program; and

responsive to identifying the SCA is incompatible with the current version of the software program, permitting the SCA, when in one of the active state or in an inactive state, to receive a glucose measurement from the glucose on-demand device.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined event is when the SCA is opened.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined event is when the SCA is closed.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined event is when the mobile device is powered on.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined event is a predetermined time.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the predetermined time is while the SCA is running.

7 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the predetermined time is while the SCA is not running.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the software program is a nonrelated program that does not work with the SCA but shares one or more resources with the SCA.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more resources comprises at least one of a software resource of the mobile device or a hardware resource of the mobile device.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the hardware resource of the mobile device comprises a wireless communication device.

11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein initiating the check comprises determining whether a safety critical incompatibility exists between the SCA and the current version of the software program.

12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the check is initiated while the current version of the software program is in an active state.

13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the check is initiated while the current version of the software program is in a passive state.

14 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the SCA is configured to cause the mobile device to communicate with the glucose on-demand device.

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the SCA is configured to interoperate with software installed on the glucose on-demand device.

16 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the prior version of the software program is associated with a time when the SCA was previously determined to be compatible with the prior version of the software program.

17 . The method of claim 1 , wherein when the SCA is in the active state, the SCA is running in the foreground.

18 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the glucose measurement is transmitted to the mobile device via Bluetooth.

19 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the SCA is initiated to request data from the continuous glucose on demand device over a Bluetooth link.

20 . The method of claim 19 , further comprising: comparing data received in response to the request for data with reference communication data to determine whether the SCA communicates accurately over the Bluetooth link.
