Abstract

See full text

A master license entry that links a software application to a user identification can be made. Application licenses to use the software application can be roamed to multiple computing machines. Feature licenses for added features of the software application can be roamed to those computing machines as well. Multiple overlapping license rights for the software application may be linked to the master license entry. A count of how many license rights for the software application are linked to the master license entry can be maintained. Requests for licenses may be refused if the count of license rights has reached zero.
