摘要： Methods for managing the distribution of client bits to client computers are disclosed. The methods of the present invention are particularly suited for use in a network environment in which one or more clients are networked with at least one server via a communications network. The communications network can be a LAN, WAN, intranet, or the Internet. The client version of one or more selected applications software components (the “managed components”) is determined on the client computer. The client queries the server to determine the most current version of each of the managed components. If the client version is not the most current version, or if the client version is missing on the client computer, a determination is made whether to download the most current version onto the client. If the determination is made to install or upgrade one or more managed components, the most current version of each of the selected managed components is downloaded onto the client computer. The installation or upgrade package is authenticated as it is being downloaded by validating a signature that is appended to the package. After the installation or upgrade package has been authenticated and downloaded onto the client computer, the package is installed onto the client.

摘要： A system and method for installing an application on a client device (e.g., a palmtop computer system) communicatively coupled to a host device (e.g., a host computer system). Instead of transferring an application to the client device from another client device, the client device receives a description of the application from the other client device. When the client device and the host device are synchronized, the description is automatically communicated by the client device to the host device, which is also in communication with a source (e.g., an application source). Additional information, such as the type of hardware or the type of operating system used by the client device, is also automatically communicated to the host device by the client device. The host device communicates to the source a specification comprising the description of the application as well as the additional information pertaining to the client device. The host device receives from the source a software element (e.g., a component, object or file for the application, or the application itself) characterized by the specification. The host device automatically makes the software element ready for installation on the client device. The software element is then installed on the client device when the host device and the client device are subsequently synchronized. The process of identifying and retrieving an application and making it ready for installation is performed automatically without user intervention, thereby simplifying for users the process of finding and downloading applications onto the client device.
摘要翻译：一种用于在通信地耦合到主机设备（例如，主计算机系统）的客户端设备（例如，掌上电脑系统）上安装应用的系统和方法。客户端设备不是从其他客户端设备将应用传送到客户端设备，而是从其他客户端设备接收应用的描述。当客户端设备和主机设备同步时，该描述被客户端设备自动地传送到也与源（例如，应用源）通信的主机设备。附加信息，例如硬件的类型或客户端设备使用的操作系统的类型，也由客户端设备自动地传送到主机设备。主机设备向源发送包括应用描述的规范以及与客户端设备有关的附加信息。主机设备从源头接收由该规范表征的软件元件（例如，应用的组件，对象或文件或应用程序本身）。主机设备自动使软件元素准备好在客户端设备上进行安装。然后当主机设备和客户端设备随后同步时，将软件元素安装在客户端设备上。自动执行识别和检索应用程序并准备安装的过程，无需用户干预，从而简化了用户查找和下载应用程序到客户端设备的过程。

摘要： A chipset in a computer system is initialized without intervention by the processor, thereby reducing the time required to boot the computer system. The system includes a nonvolatile storage device for storing configuration data for the chipset. Logic circuitry loads the configuration data into configuration registers in the chipset. The storage device and logic circuitry can be integrated into the chipset. A data pump can be used to load the configuration data into the configuration registers by serially pumping configuration data onto a scan line coupled to the configuration registers. In a system having more than one chipset, the chipsets can be initialized simultaneously to further reduce the amount of time required to boot the system. The configuration data can be downloaded into the storage device when the system is manufactured, or it can be downloaded from the processor the first time the system is powered up.
