    • A method to execute a mode-transition in a multi-mode computer system from a current to a future mode during run-time of the computer system, wherein the computer system comprises hosts with processing cores. A mode-transition is determined by a transition definition, wherein all transition definitions form a set of transition definitions, and wherein a transition definition between two defined modes comprises a reference to the initial mode, a reference to the future mode, and a list of specific actions to be executed during the mode-transition.
      A first function is provided, which is running on a host of the hosts of the computer system. A second function is running on a processing core of the hosts in the computer system. Third functions are provided, wherein a third function is running on a processing core in each of the hosts of the computer system. Fourth functions are provided, wherein on each processing core of the computer system a fourth function is running.
      The first function receives a request to execute a transition and the corresponding transition definition and computes a point in time in the future, at which activation point in time the new mode shall become active. This information is propagate via a message to the second function, which then further communicates said information via messages to third functions or to each of said third functions, wherein each said message is a MODE REQUEST message comprising the received reference to the new mode and the activation point in time in the future of the new mode. The third functions distribute this information to fourth functions running on a processing core comprised in the host related to said third functions via a message or messages, wherein each such message is a REQUEST message including the received reference to the new mode as well as the activation point time for the new mode. The fourth functions extract the reference to the new mode and the activation point in time and compute the necessary changes in the configuration of the processing core in which said fourth function is running, so that the software components, which have to run on the processing core according to the new mode can be activated.
