Managing service user discovery and service launch object placement on a device
First Claim
1. For a network device management system associated with a group of wireless devices, each wireless device in the group comprising a user interface and a device-based user interface location manager, a method comprising the network device management system cooperating with each of the device-based user interface location managers to:
- specify, for each wireless device in the group, a plurality of first service launch objects to appear in at least a first user interface service launch partition of a plurality of user interface service launch partitions on that wireless device;
specify, for each of the first service launch objects, an association between that service launch object, an associated application, and an associated particular network destination; and
enforce one or more policies on each wireless device to cause each application, when launched from an associated service launch object appearing in the first user interface service launch partition, to communicate only with the associated particular network destination.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses to manage service user discovery and service launch object placement on a device. A method comprising: obtaining information to assist in identifying a portion of a user interface of a wireless device, the wireless device communicatively coupled to a network system over a wireless access network; determining a differentiating attribute of the identified portion of the user interface; obtaining one or more service launch objects for placement in the identified portion of the user interface; and sending configuration information to the wireless device over the wireless access network to assist the wireless device in placing the one or more service launch objects in the identified portion of the user interface.
