Abstract
In a portable electronic device () having a plurality of near field communication applications stored within a plurality of execution environments, an application discovery manager () is configured to automatically select and launch one or more of the near field communication applications. A near field communication circuit () receives a near field communication request from an external near field communication device (). The application discovery manager () identifies a near field communication technology, a protocol, and an application identifier and then references a registry table () to determine identification parameters corresponding with the identified information. The application discovery manager () then selects a near field communication application and launches it. The application discovery manager () further configures a routing switch () to direct data between the near field communication circuit controller () and the appropriate execution environment.
