Abstract
Content and applications are selected from a warehouse and prepared in a distributable release targeting the device on which the content and/or application are to be viewed/run. The content and applications are, for example, device independent programs or graphics. The programs and graphics are selected generally by a user of the device, and a specific version of the application, or resolution of the content are selected from a warehouse of applications and content, the selections being made to specifically target the capabilities of the device. The distributable may include engines or device specific programs, interfaces, etc needed to make the application(s) run on the target device. Micro-provisioning is utilized to prevent duplication of any components already installed or present on the target device.
