System and method for registration for application program deployment
View Patent ↗A communication system includes a development sector for registering a plurality of wireless devices, a business sector for controlling utilization of an application program and for receiving application data, a service sector for deploying the application program and for providing the application data to the business sector in accordance with communication with at least one wireless device of the plurality; and a mobile sector comprising the plurality of wireless devices, each device for receiving the application program deployed by the service sector, executing the application program in response to the business sector, and communicating with the service sector to support provision of the application data to the business sector. The business sector or service sector may monitor or limit utilization of the auxiliary device. Deployment of application programs may be controlled by the business sector or the development sector by rendering an application program or auxiliary device available for use only after a particular time or after receipt of a message.
1. A method of registering a wireless device, the method comprising:
receiving first indicia of identification of the wireless device;
receiving second indicia of identification of an auxiliary device for use with the wireless device; and
storing the first indicia in association with the second indicia and in association with a unique account identifier.
2. The method of claim 1 performed by a server, the server in communication with a provided browser, wherein at least one of the first indicia and the second indicia are received from the browser.
3. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing an application engine to the wireless device.
4. The method of claim 1 further comprising enabling the wireless device to execute an application engine of the wireless device.
5. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing data to the wireless device for storage in the wireless device, the data for confirming identity of a user of the wireless device.
6. The method of claim 1 further comprising providing an algorithm to the wireless device for storage in the wireless device, the algorithm for confirming identity of a user of the wireless device.
7. A method of registering a wireless device, the method comprising:
invoking communication between a server and a browser, wherein the browser is remote from the wireless device;
providing to the server via the browser indicia of device type of the wireless device;
invoking communication between the browser and the wireless device to obtain indicia of identification of the wireless device; and
storing at the server the indicia of identification in association with an account identifier.
8. The method of claim 7 further comprising providing, via the communication between the browser and the wireless device, an application engine to the wireless device.
9. The method of claim 7 further comprising enabling, via the communication between the browser and the wireless device, the wireless device to execute an application engine of the wireless device.
10. The method of claim 7 further comprising providing, via the communication between the browser and the wireless device, data to the wireless device for storage in the wireless device, the data for confirming identity of a user of the wireless device.
11. The method of claim 7 further comprising providing, via the communication between the browser and the wireless device, an algorithm to the wireless device for storage in the wireless device, the algorithm for confirming identity of a user of the wireless device.
12. The method of claim 7 further comprising receiving data from the wireless device for storage in association with the account identifier, the data for confirming identity of a user of the wireless device.
13. A method for registering a wireless device, the method performed by the wireless device, the method comprising:
sending a request for registration to a provided server from a browser that is remote from the wireless device, the server comprising an account; and
sending indicia of an identification of the wireless device to the server, the server for storing the indicia of identification in association with the account.
14. The method of claim 13 further comprising:
receiving software from the server in accordance with the request; and
determining the indicia of identification in accordance with the software.
15. The method of claim 14 wherein the software comprises instructions for execution by the wireless device.
16. The method of claim 14 wherein the method further comprises:
determining indicia of a quantity of memory in the wireless device; and
sending the indicia of quantity to the server.
17. The method of claim 16 wherein the at least one of the steps of determining indicia of quantity and sending indicia of quantity are performed in accordance with the software.
18. The method of claim 13 further comprising sending a message via a wireless interface of the wireless device to verify an effect of registration.
