Abstract: A method, system and a computer program product for managing distribution of software updates in Near Field Communication (NFC) mobile devices includes retrieving information of one or more softwares in one or more NFC mobile devices by a NFC reader in communication range with the one or more NFC mobile devices, transmitting the retrieved information from the NFC reader to a distribution server which determines if the one or more softwares requires an update based on the retrieved information, in response to said determination, receiving an available updated software or update components of the one or more softwares from the distribution server to the NFC reader and transmitting thereof from the NFC reader to a secure element of the one or more NFC mobile devices whose one or more softwares require an updation.

Abstract: In a method for allocating and storing application data for applications of mobile devices, one or more processors receive one or more portions of application data of an application selected by a user of a mobile computing device. The one or more processors determine where to store each of the one or more portions of application data based on predefined instructions. The one or more processors cause each of the one or more portions of application data to be stored based on the determination.

Abstract: A method of accessing local applications when roaming on a NFC mobile device may include creating a first partition and a second partition on a secure element (SE) of a subscriber identification module (SIM) of a near field communication (NFC) enabled device. The home TSM separates the first partition and the second partition by public key encryption. The home TSM generates cryptographic keys in response to a request by a roaming TSM for access to the second partition of the SIM. Following the exchange of security keys, the home TSM delegates to the roaming TSM access to the second partition of the SIM.
