Abstract

A method of operation of a computing system includes: receiving an application package for operating on a first device and a second device; parsing the application package for an ecosystem, a first application, and a second application; installing the first application for operating with the first device; and installing the second application for operating on the second device and with the first application.

Claims

1. A method of operation of an computing system comprising:

receiving an application package for operating on a first device and a second device;

parsing the application package for an ecosystem, a first application, and a second application;

installing the first application for operating with the first device; and

installing the second application for operating on the second device and with the first application.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein:

receiving the application package includes receiving the application package having a first resource constraint and a second resource constraint being different than the first resource constraint;

installing the first application includes installing the first application for operating the first application on the first device with first resource constraint; and

installing the second application includes installing the second application for operating the second application on the second device with second resource constraint.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein:

receiving the application package includes receiving the application package having a first product functionality and a second product functionality being different than the first product functionality;

installing the first application includes installing the first application for operating the first application on the first device with first product functionality; and

installing the second application includes installing the second application for operating the second application on the second device with second product functionality.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein:

receiving the application package includes receiving the application package having a first user interface constraint and a second user interface constraint being different than the first user interface constraint;

further comprising;

installing the first user interface constraint for customizing operation of a first user interface of the first device; and

installing the second user interface constraint for customizing operation of a second user interface of the second device.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein installing the first application includes:

installing the first application for operating on the first device; and

installing a portion of the first application for operating on the second device.

6. A method of operation of a computing system comprising:

receiving an application package for operating on a first device and a second device;

parsing the application package for an ecosystem, a first application, a second application, and an associated application identification for the first application with the second application;

installing the first application for operating with the first device; and

installing the second application for operating on the second device and with the first application.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein:

parsing the application package includes parsing the application package having a third application and the third application associated with the associated application identification; and

further comprising;

installing the third application for operating with the first device or the second device based on the associated application identification.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein:

parsing the application package includes parsing a platform filter for providing an application requirement; and

installing the first application includes installing the first application for operating on the first device based on the application requirement.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein:

parsing the application package includes parsing an application location for providing a remote location or a local location for the first application or the second application; and

installing the first application includes installing the first application for operating with the first device with the first application at the application location remote from the first device.

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein installing the second application includes automatically installing the second application based on the installing the first application.

11. A computing system comprising:

a communication unit configured to receive an application package for operating on a first device and a second device;

a control unit, coupled to the communication unit, configured to;

parse the application package for an ecosystem having a first application and a second application;

install the first application for operating with the first device; and

install the second application for operating on the second device and with the first application.

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein:

the communication unit is configured to provide the application package having a first resource constraint and a second resource constraint being different than the first resource constraint;

the control unit is configured to;

install the first application for operating the first application on the first device with first resource constraint; and

install the second application for operating the second application on the second device with second resource constraint.

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein:

the communication unit is configured to provide the application package having a first product functionality and a second product functionality being different than the first product functionality;

the control unit is configured to;

install the first application for operating the first application on the first device with first product functionality; and

install the second application for operating the second application on the second device with second product functionality.

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein:

the communication unit is configured to provide the application package having a first user interface constraint and a second user interface constraint being different than the first user interface constraint;

the control unit is configured to;

install the first user interface constraint for customizing operation of a first user interface of the first device; and

install the second user interface constraint for customizing operation of a second user interface of the second device.

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to:

install the first application for operating on the first device; and

install a portion of the first application for operating on the second device.

16. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to parse the application package for the ecosystem having an associated application identification for the first application with the second application.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to:

parse the application package having a third application and the third application associated with the associated application identification; and

install the third application for operating with the first device or the second device based on the associated application identification.

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to:

parse a platform filter for providing an application requirement; and

install the first application for operating on the first device based on the application requirement.

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to:

parse an application location for providing a remote location or a local location for the first application or the second application; and

install the first application for operating with the first device with the first application at the application location remote from the first device.

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to automatically install the second application based on the installing the first application.
