Abstract: A software package comprises an application broker export module exportable from a first device to a second device, the application broker export module including an instance opening sub-module for opening a first instance of an application broker for managing operation of applications exported from the first device to the second device and for opening a second instance of the application broker for managing operation of applications between the second device and a third device. A method of communicating comprises the steps of forwarding to a first device a first request from a second device, the first request including an application broker software package, initiating at the first device a first instance of an application broker from the application broker software package, wherein the first instance includes an object to process the first request and establishing a first connection between the first and second devices in response to the first request.
