Abstract
The server device includes a first storage unit that stores an application divided into sub-applications, a second storage unit that stores information for each sub-application; a third storage unit that stores user information, a fourth storage unit that stores prepayment information, and a control unit that controls the entire server device. Some of the sub-applications can be executed alone. The control unit receives a send request from a user, and sends the sub-application through a data communication path. The user terminal which received the sub-application can start execution thereof immediately. Thus, an application communication system allowing utilization of a desired application in a short period of time after the start of communication is provided.
