Abstract: In the mobile telephone 1 relating to the present invention, a control section 2 performs control for switching between a non-active state which refuses inputs to an application program, and a rest state in which the application program is temporarily halted. The control section 2 performs control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the rest state, in accordance with instructions from an input section 3. The control section 2 further performs control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the rest state, in accordance with a function contained in an application program.

Abstract: A mobile telephone 2 having a function for downloading and executing an application A from a network server comprises a communications module execution control system 1. The judging section 132 acquires and refers to an attribute information file 14. If the attribute information file 14 contains a (UseTelephone=call) definition, then the judging section 132 judges that the call section 102 is to be executed by the application A, and if there is no UseTelephone key, then it judges that the call section 102 is not be executed by the application A. If the UseTelephone value is not “call”, then the judging section 132 judges that the download of the application A is not allowed. The control section 136 controls the download and execution of the application A, in accordance with the judgement from the judging section 132.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to enable smooth performance testing of an application software on a mobile communication terminal and to make execution state information about the application software available solely to authorized persons. The cellular phone 1 according to the present invention comprises a display 5, wireless unit 7, and control unit 2. As used herein, the display 5 is a display apparatus for displaying information. From a delivery server, the wireless unit 7 receives application software together with attribute information that indicates whether execution state information stored in a specific storage area by the application software should be displayed.

Abstract: In the mobile telephone 1 relating to the present invention, a control section 2 performs control for switching between a non-active state which refuses inputs to an application program, and an active state which permits inputs to an application program. Moreover, the control section 2 performs control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the active state, in accordance with instructions from an input section 3. The control section 2 further performs control for switching the execution state of the application program from the non-active state to the active state, in accordance with a function contained in an application program.

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.

Abstract: In order to perform control to optimize a display area during the execution of application software, the cellular phone 1 according to the present invention communicates with an application software distribution apparatus for distributing application software and is characterized by comprising a display unit 5 that includes a display screen 51 and serves to display information on the display screen 51; a wireless unit 7 for receiving, from the application software distribution apparatus, application software, and attribute data that indicates an assumed display area that is to be used as a display area during execution of the application software; and a control unit 2 for controlling the display area of the application software in the display screen 51 of the display 5 on the basis of the attribute data received by the wireless unit 7 and displayable area data that indicates the displayable area of the display screen 51.
