Description

  The present invention relates to a mobile communication terminal and a server connected to each other via a network.

  In recent years, mobile communication terminals have emerged in which specific functions such as voice calls and mail functions are implemented, and after the terminal is purchased, a user purchases and implements software necessary for the user (for example, Patent Document 1). reference). Conventionally, the OS of the mobile communication terminal is closed to the mobile communication terminal manufacturer, and the software of the mobile communication terminal is supplied by each mobile communication terminal manufacturer in the form of being mounted on the terminal as a function of the terminal. However, since various free OSs are used as the OS of mobile communication terminals, software is being supplied from developers other than mobile communication terminal manufacturers.

A browser is displayed on the screen of the display unit 28 of the mobile communication terminal 11 (S101). When software is selected by the user 1 through the displayed browser (S102), the execution control unit 29 displays software selection information. Is transmitted to the proxy processing server 13 (S103). When receiving the software selection information (S104), the execution control unit 42 of the proxy processing server 13 instructs the execution environment construction unit 43 to construct the execution environment 50 for the selected software on the virtual environment 40, and executes the execution environment. The construction unit 43 constructs the execution environment 50 of the selected software on the virtual environment 40 based on the execution environment information of the selected software (S105).

Display in the corresponding window. When the operation input from the operation unit 27 of the mobile communication terminal 11 is acquired, the execution control unit 29 determines that the input information is input information for an active window (here, the window A positioned in the foreground). Then, the data is input to the corresponding pseudo I / F 53 (in the execution environment 50a of the software A here) via the execution control unit 42. Even if the software A, B, and C are software executed in different operating systems, the software A, B, and C can be used on the portable communication terminal 11 without being affected by the influence.
