  • Patent number: 7481373
    Abstract: In a communication interface of a terminal, such as a mobile device, that includes a first application part (APT), an action is triggered from a second application part in a chip card. After a command designating the action and transmitted from the first to the second part, the first part is put to sleep. The second part is put on standby and storing parameters of the action are stored in the chip card. The second part is awakened following an event command transmitted by the communication interface, and the stored parameters are read. A command, for example for a call establishment or short message sending request, is established according to the parameters read from the second awakened part, and the established command is transmitted to the communication interface.

    Abstract: Patching of software application. A software application is stored on a smart card as partitions and is loaded from the smart card into the memory of a host computer to which the smart card is connected. The software application is executed on the host computer; which using the instructions of the software application establishes a communications channel between the software application and a remote patch server containing a patch for at least one partition of the software application. Upon detecting that a patch is available for the at least one partition of the software application, downloading the at least one partition from the remote server into volatile memory allocated to the software application on the host computer via the first communications channel, and uploading the at least one partition from the volatile memory allocated to the software application to the smart card. Other systems and methods are disclosed.
