Method and apparatus for dispatching incoming data in a multi-application terminal

摘要

A method and apparatus for dispatching incoming application data on a computing device is disclosed. A dispatcher can determine a correct destination application for an incoming application data based on a registry and an application descriptor in the incoming data. In one arrangement, the dispatcher can be included as part of the Java Mobile Device Information Profile PushRegistry framework for handling incoming network connections. The dispatcher can be used in a multiple protocol environment, as well be used by multiple applications utilizing the same protocols.
