Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for providing integrated application management, and more particularly, to a method which can provide a convenient usage environment by integrately managing various types of contents and application programs. To achieve these, the method for providing integrated application management using an integrated application service module and a plurality of execution/management engines includes: integratedly managing a plurality of applications driven in different application deployments, and providing a single user interface irrespective of the application deployments; and executing at least one of the applications. The present invention enables various types of application driven in different application deployment to be integratedly executed and managed by a single common interface in a same manner irrespective of each application deployment.

Abstract: Provided are a method and system for distributing bundled applications, which represent the installation and execution relationships of an application based on the work relevance and bundle corresponding applications together to distribute the bundled applications. A plurality of applications for distribution are converted into a plurality of distributable applications. A meta information file including information on installation and execution relationships of the distributable applications is generated. A bundled applications distribution copy including a plurality of distributable applications and the meta information file is generated and distributed.

Abstract: Provided are a method for providing a portable software computing environment and a portable storage device, which connect a computing environment in a low-speed portable storage device to a computer to provide it to a user. A portable software computing environment is changed into a file image to store the changed file image in a portable storage device. The file image of the portable storage device is copied in the storage of a host computer. An input/output request of an application operating in the portable software computing environment is intercepted, and a file is read from the file image copied in the storage of the host computer or a file is written in the copied file image. Changed information which is temporarily stored is reflected in the file image.
