Abstract: Management server 16 may obtain application programs from content server 20 in response to requests of mobile terminal 11. Management server 16 may transmit the obtained application programs to mobile terminal 11 with information concerning reliabilities of the application programs. After mobile terminal 11 receives the application programs from management server 16, mobile terminal 11 manages operations of the application programs. Operations of the application programs are coordinated with operations of other programs using the information concerning the reliabilities corresponding to the application programs. Management of the coordinated operations of the application programs avoids problems concerning information security, where valuable information may be distributed unexpectedly because of operations of low reliable application programs. As a result, convenience of users of mobile terminals 11 can be improved without deteriorating the information security of mobile terminals 11.

Abstract: In a communication terminal using UIM, when a message disabling use of a content is received not by a communication terminal containing the content to disabled, but by another communication terminal containing the same content, the content stored in a storage unit of the communication terminal which has received the message is not disabled. Mobile phone 100-1 using UIM stores a program in correlation with a telephone number stored in the UIM. When mobile phone 100-1 receives a management message to delete a program, mobile phone 100-1 interprets the content of the management message. Mobile phone 100-1 obtains a telephone number from the UIM, and deletes the content stored in correlation with the telephone number according to the management message interpreted.
