MOBILE DEVICE APPLICATION RATING

摘要

A system includes a ratings server that receives the list of top applications from a source external to the ratings server and selects at least a subset of the top applications based at least in part on a rank of each of the top applications in the list. The system further includes a test server that tests at least one characteristic of each of the subset of top applications selected by the ratings server and outputs a rating representing the at least one characteristic. The ratings server determines a behavior of each of the subset of top applications based on the rating and publishes the behavior of the subset of top applications for access by a user over a communication network.

1. A method comprising:
identifying a plurality of top applications; selecting at least a subset of the top applications based on a rank of each of the plurality of top applications identified; testing at least one characteristic of each of the subset of the top applications to determine a behavior of each of the subset of the top applications; and publishing the behavior of each of the subset of the top applications via a ratings server accessible to a user over a communication network.
