ARCHITECTURE OF A NETWORK DEVICE FOR PROCESSING APPLICATIONS, AND CONTROL METHOD FOR THE NETWORK DEVICE
First Claim
1. In a network device processing at least one or more applications, the network device processing at least one or more applications comprising:
- a host S/W processing module configured to receive a key-event for executing a specific command and to optionally transmit the received key-event to an add-on system manager;
an add-on system manager configured to verify a specific application that is focused among at least one or more currently executable applications, and to transmit the received key-event to the focused specific application; and
an add-on application configured to process the received key-event.

Abstract
The present invention relates to an add-on architecture which can be applied to a network device. A network device for processing at least one or more applications, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises: a host S/W processing module which receives a key event for executing a specific command, and transmits the received key event to an add-on system manager, said add-on system manager which checks a focused specific application from among one or more applications currently being executed, and which transmits the received key event to the focused specific application; and an add-on application which processes the received key event.

10. In a method for controlling a network device processing at least one or more applications, the method for controlling the network device processing at least one or more applications comprising:
-
transmitting a signal requesting for an authentication of the network device to a server; receiving an identification signal identifying a confirmed authentication or a non-confirmed authentication of the network device from the server; when the identification signal corresponds to a signal confirming the authentication of the network device, downloading an application from the server; receiving a specific key-event for executing a specific command, and optionally transmitting the received key-event to an add-on system manager; and verifying a focused specific application, among at least one or more of currently executable applications, and transmitting the received key-event to the focused specific application.

18. In a method for controlling a network device processing at least one or more applications, the method for controlling the network device processing at least one or more applications comprising:
-
receiving a key-event for creating an applications list; searching for an application that is already installed in the network device; creating a list of the searched applications; displaying the created applications list; receiving an execution request on an application selected from the at least one or more applications listed in the applications list; verifying whether or not the application requested to be executed can be executed normally by using metadata of the corresponding application; and when it is verified that the corresponding application can be executed normally, executing the corresponding application. - View Dependent Claims (19)
