SYSTEM FOR ENABLING HOST-INDEPENDENT SOFTWARE PORTABILITY OF A SELF-CONTAINED DEVICE

摘要

A system and method that enable placing on an active PMD host software that normally requires installation on a host, and running such software on a host connected to the PMD, without installing the software on the host. In this way, the PMD becomes self-contained, and can connect to any host for the purpose of interaction, manipulation and transfer of content stored on the PMD, without requiring any proprietary software related to the PMD to be pre-installed on the host, and without installing any software on the host during the connection of the PMD to the host.
