A method for providing an administration policy to a user device comprising a plurality of applications, the method comprising centrally generating the administration policy to be implemented in the user device, the administration policy comprising at least one of an application administration policy to be used by at least one of the plurality of applications and a client administration policy for the user device; and providing the generated policy to the user device.

Method for providing wireless application privilege management

A method for automatically registering the runtime environment and related component applications with an application gateway when transferring the applications from a first wireless device to a second wireless device is provided. Applications installed on the first wireless device are registered with an application gateway, which maintains a registration list of identification information for all registered wireless devices and applications installed thereon. A back-up is created of the applications and registration information for the runtime environment installed on the first wireless device for transfer to a second wireless device. An application container of the second wireless device determining installation and communicating to the application gateway identification information regarding the second wireless device and the restored applications. The application gateway registers the second wireless device by updating the registration list with the identification information for the second wireless device and the applications installed thereon.

System and method for efficient transfer of applications and data during device swap

Apparatus, and an associated method, for a communication device operable pursuant to a push content communication scheme. An instruction detector detects a message containing a instruction by which to operate upon push content. The message is, for instance, generated by a mobile station at which an application associated with the content is resident. Once detected by the instruction detector, a content operator operates upon the content in a manner corresponding to the instruction contained in the detected message. Once operated upon, the content is stored at a storage element, available when an application of which the content is associated, becomes active.

Apparatus, and associated method, for facilitating background processing of push content

A method of identifying content of interest in a structured electronic document by an electronic device having a processor, an input device, and a display device, includes rendering a structured electronic document to the display device; receiving through the input device at least two separate indications of content elements within the rendered structured electronic document; and identifying with the processor a common characteristic of the indicated content elements, and identifying any further content element within the rendered structured electronic document sharing the common characteristic with the indicated content elements.

Methods and systems for identifying content elements

A method and system for establishing a secure over-the-air (OTA) connection between a connection owner and a server, the connection owner being associated with a wireless device connected to the server via a communications network. A secure session is instantiated on behalf of the connection owner, the secure session being maintained by the server and defining a context for the secure OTA connection. A registration key and a reset key are defined, and stored in association with the secure session on both the server and the wireless device. Access to the secure session is controlled using at least the registration key, and the secure session is maintained on the server only as long as the connection owner has a valid registration key.

Destroying a secure session maintained by a server on behalf of a connection owner

Methods and systems are provided for controlling asynchronous distribution and installation of software updates affecting applications installed on terminal devices of a wireless network. A versioning schema enforced by the application development environment enables the runtime environment of a terminal device to evaluate a software update to identify potential compatibility issues and control installation of the update.

Method and system for controlling software version updates

A method for extending a script language in a runtime environment of a data processing system to support an application, the runtime environment having a script language interpreter, the method comprising: subclassing a predetermined object defined by the script language to create a subclassed object, the predetermined object having an original method, the subclassed object having a respective replacement method for supporting the application; dynamically registering a symbol corresponding to the subclassed object; detecting the subclassed object in the application with the script language interpreter; and, executing the replacement method with the script language interpreter.

Method and system for extending scripting languages

Wireless data message optimization for messages sent between a wireless device and a server that provides a service that the wireless device is authorized to access is provided using an application gateway that serves as a proxy between the wireless device and the server. The application gateway maps optimized service request messages generated by the wireless device to a service request message format expected by the server, and maps response messages generated by the server to an optimized response message format expected by the wireless device. The optimized message format is flattened by removing unnecessary message structure, eliminates unnecessary message fields, and uses default and enumeration encoding to reduce optimized message size.

System, method and apparatus for optimized wireless messaging

A system and method of creating and communicating with wireless component applications is provided. Mobile communication devices communicate with a web service via a wireless network, the Internet, and optionally a message-map service. Each wireless component application is executed by a component framework on one of the mobile communication devices, and comprises data components, presentation components, message components, and workflow components. The component framework executes the component application in an application container which provides access to framework services which include a communication service, a screen service, a persistence service, an access service, a provisioning service, and a utility service. Messages can be sent from the component application to the message-map service, which converts each of the messages to a format required by the web service using an application message-map, and then sends the message to the web service. The web service sends a response to the message-map service, which converts the response to the format required by the wireless component application, and sends the response to the wireless component application.
