Definitions
- This invention relates to mobile devices and, more particularly, to a methods and apparatus for managing applications and data for a mobile device.
- Mobile devices such as mobile telephones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), have become increasingly sophisticated in ability to perform functions.
- PDAs personal digital assistants
- designers of these devices have also been able to place increasingly powerful processing power in these devices because of advances in microelectronics.
- Concurrent with the increase in sophistication of these mobile devices, the systems in which mobile devices operate have been developed to offer higher data rates and more services.
- main memory may be limited in a smaller device.
- PDAs for example have limited memory. This problem is often overcome by adding additional secondary external or internal memory such as MMC. Even then, however, data on external memory may not be compatible with the PDA memory as provided by the PDA supplier or as qucikly accessible as data stored on main memory . As PDAs are combined into mobile devices that are capable of performing multiple functions of increasing sophistication, memory limitations could become a factor in mobile device performance.
- the invention presents a method and apparatus for managing applications and data for mobile devices.
- external memories of the mobile device and/or network storage may be used as secondary storage locations for relatively low use programs and data loaded into the mobile device in a communications system. Both program and data may be stored in the secondary locations.
- the handling and management of storage in the external memory and/or network storage and, the handling and management of the programs and data in the device are performed in predetermined manner to increase efficient use of memory. If main memory or cache memory capacity is available in the mobile device, the method and apparatus may be utilized to store programs in the main memory or cache device, as long as no program exists in the mobile device having a higher priority for storage in the main memory or cache memory, This would allow quicker access to the program.
- main memory or cache memory may be stored in secondary or network storage, depending on preferences. For example, programs requiring small data storage areas that are not used frequently, such as a game, may be stored in network storage and retrieved on line when a user of the mobile device desires to use the program. The retrieved program may be stored in the memory of the mobile device with the memory of the mobile device serving as cache. Applications and data could be swapped in and out of the memory of the mobile device according to use. Programs that are generic or offered by a service provider may be cached locally in the main memory of the mobile device. Security and immunity from virus infection could be prevented by implementing download/swap-in mechanisms that validate the integrity of the program being loaded. Data files could be handled in a similar manner.
- a launcher program is implemented into the mobile device.
- the launcher program is p reconstructed or preconfigured to reference a defined network location for target executable programs.
- the launcher program has the capability to access the network location and secondary storage using necessary mechanisms and algorithms according to the relevant technology.
- the launcher program may support a variety of different methods and use those suitable to the available secondary storage media.
- a target program is to be stored in secondary storage
- the user ' s desired location is requested via a prompt in order that the target program may be stored in one of any number of secondary storage locations, such as SIMM, MMC, PCMCC1A memory card, PCMCIA disk drive, or alternatives.
- the target program is downloaded to local storage or main memory or cache memory and control is transferred to the target program.
- Various alternatives for storage may be followed depending on the current state of available memory and other programs that are stored in the mobile device.
- the selected program may be loaded into the mobile device by other means than through network data transfer, if the mobile device is not network capable, .such as cable or infrared.
- the launcher program of the embodiment provides the functions of validation of the target program as it is loaded from network storage or a secondary storage location.
- the launcher program operates according to control parameters that may be definable by the user of the mobile device.
- the launcher program tracks parameters such as program size, the amount of time the program has been stored in the mobile device, priority of use, amount of use and last time of use of the target program, Based on these parameters, the launcher program manages the cache or local storage in the mobile device according to user predefined control. For example, the least used target programs or target programs that are stored longer than a predetermined period in local storage without use may be deleted from local storage.
- the launcher program When the launcher program is invoked for a particular target program, the launcher program uses information retained from the tasks of managing the target program storage. On subsequent uses of a target program that was loaded from network storage, the launcher program would load from the location in which the program is stored and transfer control of the target program.

- Mobile station 1 also is capable of receiving secondary storage location capability at PCMCIA slot 20 and MMC slot 21. PCMCIA slot may be used to connect a PCMCIA memory card or PCMCIA disk drive to use as a secondary storage location.
- FIG. 2 therein is a flow chart illustrating process steps performed when using a launcher program according to an embodiment of the ' invention.
- the process begins at 300.
- the launcher program is loaded into mobile device 1 ,
- the program may be loaded over the communications channel air interface or by others means such as cable connection to a personal computer or service provider's programming station.
- the launcher program resides in the mobile device and may be implemented as configured by the service provider or implemented to be user configurable
- the user is prompted to enter input for defining control parameters that control storage management and a storage configuration in the mobile device for one or more programs.
- the control parameters may be defined broadly or be program specific for programs included in a selection package provided by the network service provider.
- all programs designated as "games class” may be given a low storage priority.
- the storage priority may define the relative priority of allowing a program to be stored on the mobile device when storage capacity is limited.
- Programs designated as ⁇ organizer class” may be given a priority higher than the storage priority given the "games" programs.
- the storage priority of specific program having a low -storage priority for its class may be given a higher priority.
- the control parameters may define where a certain class of programs or a specific program is to be stored on the mobile device. For example, "games class” programs may be defined to be stored on PCMCIA memory only if space is available from higher priority programs or otherwise only on the network, while "organizer class” programs may be specified to be stored on PCMCIA memory with priority.
- a selected program is invoked through the launcher program.
- the launcher may allow invocation of a selected program included in the selection package provided by the network service provider.
- step 308 storage management of the selected program invoked at step 308 is performed.
- FIG 3 therein is a flow chart illustrating process steps performed in step 308 of Figure 3, The storage management according to the embodiment of Figure 3 is performed as illustrated in Figure 3.
- the process begins at 400.
- step 401 a determination is made as to whether the selected program is stored in the main memory of the mobile device from a previous use. If the selected program is stored in the main memory from a previous use, the process moves to step 310 and the program is executed, Alternatively to executing the selected program directly from main memory as in steps 401 and 310, the user may be given the option of, by prompt or otherwise, storing the selected program in secondary storage if the selected program is in main memory but not in secondary storage.
- step 401 it is determined that the selected program Invoked in step 306 is not stored in main memory, the process moves to step 402. - At step 402 a determination is made as to whether the selected program is stored in a secondary-storage location in the mobile device. If the selected program is not stored in secondary storage, the process moves to step 404. At step 404 a determination is made as to whether the launcher-program, control parameters indicate that the selected program is to be stored in secondary storage, If it is determined that the selected program is not to be stored in secondary storage, the process moves to step 406,
- the selected program is loaded into main memory form the network If however, at step 404, it is determined that the selected program is to be stored in secondary storage, the process move to step 408.
- the launcher program prompts the user to enter a desired secondary-storage location. Alternatively, the control parameters entered at step 304 may be used to indicate the desired secondary-storage location for the selected program.
- the selected program is loaded into the secondary storage from the network and then into main memory at step 41 . The selected program is then executed at step 310. If however, at step 402, it is determined that the selected program is stored in secondary memory, the process moves to step 414. At step 414 location details on how and where the selected program is stored in secondary storage are retrieved.
- step 414 the user could be given the option to modify the storage location through a series of steps similar to steps 408 - 41 .
- step 416 the integrity of the selected program as stored in secondary storage is checked. This could be done using a series of checksums or equivalent mechanisms. If it is determined that the stored selected program has maintained integrity, the process moves through step 418 to step 420. At step 420 the selected program is loaded from the secondary storage to the main memory of the mobile device. If however, at step 418 it is determined that the stored, selected program has not maintained integrity, the process moves to step 422.
- control-parameter update may include updating parameters that the launcher program uses on subsequent invocations of the selected program. For example, parameters indicating that the selected program remains stored in secondary storage and/or main memory after execution may be updated. Parameters related to other programs that-were effected by the invocation of the selected program may also be update. For example, if a lower priority program is replaced in both or one of the secondary storage or main memory of the mobile device during the process of figure 2 and figure 3, these parameters may be updated.
- the selected program when placed in main memory it will be a candidate for purging, but will not be purged unless a memory demand arises.
- a second program being launched may require the memory space used by the selected program. If the amount of main memory were adequate, a user could toggle between several programs in the mobile device without the programs being purged, allowing faster access to the programs.
- the launcher of the embodiment could also be used to manage the storage of data files or records, In one embodiment of this, the launcher would require that a remote location, e.g. , a user-network folder, where the files are placed when the need for the memory space taken up by them is required. If no network connection is available when the need for the memory space taken by the files arises, then the data will be placed on secondary storage. Sets of data could be retrieved independent of whether it is stored on main memory or secondary storage. For example, a playlist could be found using data-f ⁇ le- locating methods, When the application is invoked, the files comprising the playlist are retrieved from a personal web location or personal net folder, then the application could be launched to effect the result.
- a remote location e.g. , a user-network folder
- efficiency of launch is maintained by having the first item start to be utilized prior to a second time being fetched.
