RESOURCE BASED MOBILE DEVICE APPLICATION STREAMING
First Claim
1. A method for streaming an application, the method comprising:
- accessing an application fragment corresponding to a portion of a computer application, the application fragment having previously been determined based on an analysis of user interfaces of the computer application such that the application fragment is capable of displaying at least one user interface;
receiving, from a mobile device, an indication that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate the second application fragment;
determining that a second application fragment follows the first application fragment based on an access of a fragments relationship data structure, the fragments relationship data structure associating the first application fragment with the second application fragment based on a determination that the second application fragment follows the first application fragment during operation of the computer application; and
streaming, via a network interface and to the mobile device, the second application fragment based on the indication that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate the second application fragment, and based on the fragments relationship data structure indicating that the second application fragment follows the first application fragment during operation of the computer application.

Abstract
Technology for decomposing an application into fragments and streaming the application in fragments is disclosed herein. According to at least one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes steps of determining multiple application fragments of a computer application, wherein each application fragment of the application fragments includes a code to present at least one interface of the computer application; storing the application fragments at a storage device; generating a resource dependency data structure, wherein for each specific application fragment of the application fragments, the resource dependency data structure includes identifications of resources that are needed for running the specific application fragment; and streaming, via a network component, at least one application fragment of the application fragments to a computing device.

16. A method comprising:
-
receiving and running, by a mobile device, a first application fragment corresponding to a first portion of a computer program, the application fragment having previously been determined based on an analysis of user interfaces of the computer application such that the first application fragment is capable of displaying at least one user interface; sending, by the mobile device, an indication that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate a second application fragment corresponding to a second portion of the computer program; and receiving, by the mobile device, the second application fragment, the second application fragment sent based on the indication that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate the second application fragment, and based on data from a fragments data structure indicating that the second application fragment follows the first application fragment during operation of the computer application. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A system comprising:
-
a communication device through which to communicate with remote devices; a storage device; a processor coupled to the communication device and to the storage device; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory storing instructions which when executed by the processor cause the system to perform operations including; accessing the storage device containing multiple application fragments, each of the application fragments corresponding to a portion of a computer application, the application fragments having previously been determined based on an analysis of user interfaces of the computer application such that each of the application fragments is capable of displaying at least one user interface; receiving, from a mobile device, a request for a second application fragment, the mobile device having sent the request based on a determination that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate the second application fragment, and based on a fragments relationship data structure indicating that the second application fragment follows a first application fragment during operation of the computer application; receiving, from the mobile device, an indication that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate the second application fragment, the indication being the request for the second application fragment; and streaming, via the communication device and to the mobile device, the second application fragment based on the indication that the mobile device has adequate resources to accommodate the second application fragment, and based on the fragments relationship data structure indicating that the second application fragment follows the first application fragment during operation of the computer application. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)
