Mobile communication terminal, application software initiating apparatus, application software initiating system, application software initiating method, and application software initiating program
First Claim
1. A mobile communication terminal for communicating with an application software starting device, said mobile communication terminal comprising:
- storing means for storing application software in association with identification information;
receiving means for receiving identification information transmitted from the application software starting device; and
starting means for retrieving from the storing means and starting application software that corresponds to identification information received by the receiving means characterized in that the storing means stores the authentication information used for the external startup of the application software in association with identification information for the application software;
the receiving means receives authentication information transmitted from the application software starting device; and
the starting means retrieves from the storing means and starts application software that corresponds to identification information received by the receiving means when it is determined by the authentication mechanism that there is identity between the authentication information stored in the storing means and the authentication information received by the receiving means.

Abstract
The mobile telephone 1 pertaining to the present invention comprises a memory unit 6, a short-range wireless unit 8, and a control unit 2. The memory unit 6 associates and stores an application ID, keyword, and application software. The short-range wireless unit 8 receives an application ID and keyword transmitted from outside. The control unit 2 retrieves from the application storage area 62 and starts application software that corresponds to the received application ID when there is a match between the keyword received by the short-range wireless unit 8 and the keyword stored in the ADF storage area 61.

10. An application software starting method in a mobile communication terminal for communicating with an application software starting device, said application software starting method comprising:
-
a storing step in which the mobile communication terminal stores application software in association with identification information in storing means; a transmitting step in which the application software starting device transmits identification information for application software relating to the application software starting device to the mobile communication terminal; a receiving step in which the mobile communication terminal receives the identification information transmitted in the transmitting step; and a starting step in which the mobile communication terminal retrieves from the storing means and starts application software that corresponds to identification information received in the receiving step, characterized in that authentication information used in the startup of the application software is stored in the storing means in association with identification information for application software in the storing step; authentication information is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal in the transmitting step; authentication information transmitted in the transmitting step is received in the receiving step; a determining step is further provided for determining the identity of authentication information stored in the storing step and authentication information received in the receiving step; and application software that corresponds to the identification information received in the receiving step is retrieved from the storing means and started in the starting step when it is determined in the determining step that the authentication information stored in the storing step is identical to the authentication information received in the receiving step. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
