Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for updating an electronic device. One method includes obtaining a binary patch for a binary image being executed by the device, generating a plurality of independent packets based on the binary patch to be applied by the device to the binary image to generate a portion of a patched binary image, wherein the packets are streamed to the device over at least one network. An electronic device executing a binary image is also provided, which includes an input/output interface configured to receive a stream of independent binary patch packets from at least one server that are generated by the server based on a binary patch, and a processor configured to apply each packet to the binary image to generate a portion of a patched binary image and, when the processor has applied each of the packet, replace the binary image with the patched binary image.
