  Background (computer software) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The background, in the context of computer software processes, refers in general to processes that are run with a relatively low priority, require little or no input, and generate a minimum of output.
Background processes can roughly be divided into two categories: daemons and compute-intensive tasks.
The background is also used for long tasks that require huge amount of computation and thus CPU time.

 Daemon (computer software) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Unix and other computer operating systems, a daemon is a particular class of computer program that runs in the background, rather than under the direct control of a user; they are usually instantiated as processes.
Daemons are characters in Greek mythology, some of whom handled tasks that the gods couldn't be bothered with, much like computer daemons often handle tasks in the background that the user can't be bothered with.
In common Unix usage a daemon may be any background process, whether a child of init or not.

 The History of Software Patents (BitLaw)
In that case, the invention related to a method for determining how rubber should be heated in order to be best "cured." The invention utilized a computer to calculate and control the heating times for the rubber.
What was clear was that the patentability of a software related invention depended heavily on the claims created by the patent attorney.
However, if the invention utilizes the computer to manipulate numbers that represent concrete, real world values (such as a program that interprets electrocardiograph signals to predict arrhythmia or a program that analyzes seismic measurements), then the invention is a process relating to those real world concepts and is patentable.
