Abstract

A method of operation of a navigation system includes: detecting a source application for registering the source application to a target device; generating a first application portion for partitioning the source application for running the first application portion; and operating the first application portion for interacting with the source application for partially controlling an execution of the source application.

Claims

1. A method of operation of a navigation system comprising:

detecting a source application for registering the source application to a target device;

generating a first application portion for partitioning the source application for running the first application portion; and

operating the first application portion for interacting with the source application for partially controlling an execution of the source application.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising updating the first application portion for improving the source application.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising generating a second application portion for augmenting the first application portion.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising generating a first application interface based on the first application portion for ensuring a usability of the source application.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

generating a second application portion for augmenting the first application portion; and

generating a second application interface based on the second application portion for replacing a first application interface.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising generating an application add-on with the application add-on originating independently from the source application for improving the source application on the target device.

7. A method of operation of a navigation system comprising:

detecting a source application for registering the source application to a target device;

generating a first application portion for partitioning the source application for running the first application portion on the target device; and

operating the first application portion for interacting with the source application from the target device for partially controlling an execution of the source application.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising updating the first application portion based on a current location for modifying a usability of the source application.

9. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising generating a second application portion based on a current location for modifying a usability of the source application.

10. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising:

determining a subscription status for modifying a usability of the source application; and

updating the first application portion based on the subscription status for controlling the first application portion generated.

11. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising:

determining a subscription status for modifying a usability of the source application; and

generating a second application portion based on the subscription status for replacing the first application portion.

12. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising:

detecting a vehicle speed for modifying the usability of the source application; and

updating the first application portion based on the vehicle speed for ensuring safety for controlling the target device.

13. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising:

detecting a vehicle speed for modifying the usability of the source application; and

generating a second application portion based on the vehicle speed for replacing the first application portion.

14. A navigation system comprising:

an application detector module for detecting a source application for registering the source application to a target device;

an application generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a first application portion for partitioning the source application for running the first application portion; and

an operator module, coupled to the application generator module, for operating the first application portion for interacting with the source application for partially controlling an execution of the source application.

15. The system as claimed in claim 14 further comprising a first portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for updating the first application portion for improving a usability of the source application.

16. The system as claimed in claim 14 further comprising a second portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a second application portion for replacing the first application portion.

17. The system as claimed in claim 14 further comprising a first interface module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a first application interface based on the first application portion for ensuring a usability of the source application.

18. The system as claimed in claim 14 further comprising:

a second portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a second application portion for replacing the first application portion; and

a second interface module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a second application interface based on the second application portion for replacing a first application interface.

19. The system as claimed in claim 14 wherein the application generator module is for generating an application add-on for enhancing the usability of the source application on the target device.

20. The system as claimed in claim 14 wherein:

the application generator module is for generating a first application portion for partitioning the source application for running the first application portion on the target device; and

the operator module is for operating the application portion for interacting with the source application from the target device for partially controlling an execution of the source application.

21. The system as claimed in claim 20 further comprising a first portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for updating the first application portion based on a current location for modifying a usability of the source application.

22. The system as claimed in claim 20 further comprising a second portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a second application portion based on a current location for modifying a usability of the source application.

23. The system as claimed in claim 20 further comprising:

a status module, coupled to the application detector module, for determining a subscription status for modifying a usability of the source application; and

a first portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for updating the first application portion based on the subscription status for controlling the first application portion generated.

24. The system as claimed in claim 20 further comprising:

a status module, coupled to the application detector module, for determining a subscription status for modifying a usability of the source application; and

a second portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a second application portion based on the subscription status for replacing the first application portion.

25. The system as claimed in claim 20 further comprising:

a condition detector module, coupled to the application detector module, for detecting a vehicle speed for modifying the usability of the source application; and

a first portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for updating the first application portion based on the vehicle speed for ensuring safety for controlling the target device.

26. The system as claimed in claim 20 further comprising:

a condition detector module, coupled to the application detector module, for detecting a vehicle speed for modifying the usability of the source application; and

a second portion generator module, coupled to the application detector module, for generating a second application portion based on the vehicle speed for replacing the first application portion.
