摘要

The application relates to a method and system for keeping data and applications together and easily transportable across unconnected or unfamiliar computers. The teachings of this document disclose a hardware and operating system independent portable database system that integrates application data, along with intrinsic characteristics of data, and the functions that control, manage and query data and that can be activated, accessed, and changed in a given computer without using external database management system software that may or may not be present on the said computer. This system and method also provide an application development environment for portable applications to be developed that would generate and be supported by their own respective data, such combinations of portable applications and data being executable transparently and unobtrusively in a given computer that does not have installed in it the said application.
