A terminal (60) in a digital broadcasting system supports a virtual machine (150), such as a JavaTM virtual machine, which processes applications in a first code format, such as JavaTM byte code. A plug-in (110) is provided which converts applications that are received in a second code format into the first code format. The plug-in (110) can compile (120) the application into the first code format. The application can be compiled (120) upon receipt, or it may be stored (69) and compiled at a later time, such as overnight or when the virtual machine (150) has spare processing capacity (114). Applications can be converted based on monitored usage statistics (112). ® KIPO & WIPO 2007 |
