[BEST MODE]
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings in detail. The same reference numbers are used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. Detailed descriptions of well-known functions and structures incorporated herein may be omitted to avoid obscuring the subject matter of the present invention.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a portable storage device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. In order to simplify the explanation, a portable storage device 150 is depicted with two client devices 110 and 120 in FIG. 1. The portable storage device 150 may be a Universal Serial Bus (USB) memory device. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.
Referring to FlG. 1 , the portable storage device 150 includes an application management unit 160, an execution information management unit 170, an execution parameter configuration unit 180, and a database 190. The application management unit 160 checks whether a target application to be copied is installed within the first client device 110. If a target application is installed, the application management unit 160 reads program files (AF1) of the target application from the first client device 110.
The execution information management unit 170 searches the first client device 110 for the execution informations (AIj) associated with the target application and copies the retrieved execution informations to the database 190.
The database 190 stores the execution informations (AH to AIn) received from the first client device 110.
The execution parameter configuration unit 180 retrieves an execution information (AIj) compliant with an operating system of the second client device 120 from the database 190 and sends the retrieved execution information (AIj) to the second client device 120.
The execution information (Al,) of the target application includes environmental parameters, dynamic link library (DLL), files, and folders. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating an application execution method using a portable storage device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The application execution method is described hereinafter with reference to FIGs. 1 and 2.
The execution information management unit 170 retrieves execution information (Al,) of a target application installed in the first client device 1 10 at step S210. Next, the execution information management unit 170 reads the execution information (Al1) from the first client device 110 and stores the execution information (Al1) within the database 190 at step S230. At this time, the application management unit 160 copies the program files (AF,) of the target application from the first client device 1 10 and stores the copied program files (AF,) within the storage unit 152. That is, the program files (AF,) and execution information of the target application moves from the first client device 110 to the portable storage device 150 (S230).
The database 190 can store execution informations (AH to AIn) of various applications, and the storage unit 152 can store the program files (AF1 to AFn) of the applications. The application management unit 160 deletes the program files (AFi) of the target application from the first client device 110 after successfully storing the program files within the storage unit 152 of the portable storage device 150 at step S250. The program files (AFi) may not be deleted from the first client device 110 after being successfully copied. FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating step S250 of FIG. 2 in more detail.
Referring to FIG. 3, in a case of deleting the program files (AF1) from the first client device 110, transferring progress information indicating a status of the transfer of the program file (AFi) and execution information (AIi) is reported to an uninstaller (not shown) of the first client device at step S252. The uninstaller of the first client 110 deletes the program files (AFi) and execution information (AIi) of the target application on the basis of the transfer progress information received from the portable storage device 150 at step S254.
A location of the uninstaller of the first client device 110 can be checked at the following registry path. A key of the registry path may include "DisplayName" and "UninstallString". The "DisplayName" key is provided with a name of the application program, and the "UninstallString" key is provided with an uninstallation path and the name of the application program as following.
HKey_LOCAL_Machine\Software\microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninst all\Product
The path and keys of the uninstaller can be changed according to the operating system of the first client device 110. Since the uninstallers stores information in different manners and some uninstallers are not allowed to access, it may difficult to directly extract the information of the uninstaller. In order to solve this problem, a process can be run to perform hooking on the tasks running by the uninstaller. While blocking the execution of the uninstaller, commands and data are extracted and sent to the portable storage device.
On the basis of the extracted data, a file and registry monitoring file is generated. The registry monitoring file can be copied to a "PROGRAMFILE" directory of the first client device. Of course the directory can be changed. The extracted data value may be translated to be used by all client device, and the name of the file is modified to be appropriate for "DisplayName" stored in the registry as following. PROGRAM FILES: A directory managing files required for execution
SYSDIR: A directory managing files existing in SYSTEM32 directory DOCDIR: A directory managing files existing in Documents and Settings directory'
TMPDIR: A directory managing files existing in temporary folder USER: User Name
START: START MENU
PROGRAM: A director for managing files existing in a target USB DESKTOP: desktop screen
The name of a file can be changed into a name of an application program on the basis of the registry value. After all the copying processes are completed, the registry and file may be deleted.
How an application program is executed within a second client device 120 without installation process is described hereinafter.
After the downloading the program files and execution information of the target application, the execution parameter configuration unit 180 provides the second client device 120 with execution information (AIj) required for executing program files (AFj) selected among the application program files (AF 1 to AFn) stored within the portable device 150 at step S270. The execution parameter configuration unit 180 retrieves the execution information (AIj) from the database 190 and sends the retrieved execution information (AIj) to the second client device 120. The second client device 120 executes the program files (AFj) stored in the portable device 150 on the basis of the execution information (AIj) so as to run the application program at step S290.
FIGs. 4 and 5 are flowcharts illustrating additional steps of the application execution method of FIG. 2 according to different example embodiments of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4, the application execution method of the present invention further includes connecting the portable storage device 150 to a first client device 110 (S201) and searching the first client device 110 for a target application (S202). If the target application installed in the first client device 110 is retrieved, program files (AFi) and execution information (AIi) of the target application can be transferred from the first client device 110 to the portable storage device 150.
Referring to FIG. 5, the application execution method of the present invention further includes connecting the portable storage device 150 to a first client device 110 (S201), searching and displaying a list of applications installed in the first client device (S204), and selecting a target application from the list according to a user selection command (S206). In this case, program files (AFi) and execution information (AIi) of the target application selected by the user are transferred from the first client device 110 to the portable storage device 150. The applications can be checked at a registry path of the first client device 110 as following.
HKEY^LOCA^MACHINEXSoftwareXMicrosoftWindowXUninstall The registry path is an example and can be changed according to the operating system and registry system of the first client device.
FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating additional steps of the application execution method of FIG. 2.
Referring to FIG. 6, the application execution method of the present invention further includes connecting the portable storage device to a second client device 120 (S266) and analyzing the operating system of the second client device
120 (268). After the operating system analysis is completed, the execution parameter configuration unit 180 retrieves the execution information (AIj) available for executing the target application in the operating system environment of the second client device 120 from the database 190 and transfers the retrieved execution information (AIi) to the second client device 120 (S270).
If a user selection command is detected on an execution file of the target application, the execution parameter configuration unit 180 analyses the operating system environment of the second client device 120. If it is determined that the target application is not installed in the second client device 120, the execution parameter configuration unit 180 transfers the execution information (AIi) of the target application to the second client device 120 such that the second client device 120 can execute program files of the target application.
