1. A computer-implemented system for distributing multiple application parts of multiple applications and integrating said distributed application parts into at least one host application, the system comprising:
- an application adapter and an application distribution systemwherein part autonomy is maintained preventing interference of any of said distributed parts with other said distributed parts, preventing interference of any of said distributed parts with said host applications, and preventing interference of said host applications with any of said distributed parts;
requests for said distributed application parts are made to said application adapter, said application adapter requests said distributed application parts from said application distribution system, said application distribution system requests said distributed application parts from said distributed applications, said application distribution system receives the content of said distributed application parts, said application distribution system parses the content of said distributed application parts, said content comprising the uniform resource locators (URLs), the query parameters, the cookies, and the forms of said distributed application parts, said parsing transforming the URLs, the query parameters, the cookies, and the forms of said distributed application parts, to preserve autonomy, said application distribution system returns said transformed content to said application adapter, said application adapter returns said transformed content wherein said transformed content is integrated into said host applications.

Abstract
The present invention comprises an application distribution and metrics system as well as an application monetizing system (ADMS). The ADMS incorporates a cross-platform application distribution system and a usage-based and ad-based monetizing system which allows for fine-tuned usage-based pricing schemes to be created based on system-defined metrics and developer-defined metrics, seamless integration of ad-based monetizing, third party participation in monetizing efforts, and a flexible revenue allocation process.
