Abstract

See full text

A mechanism is provided for deciding whether to install a first application within one of a plurality of candidate environments. An environment comprising one or more other applications. The first application and a candidate environment are analyzed to determine whether there is the potential for the first application to interact in an unintended manner with an application in the candidate environment. If there is no such potential, then the environment is identified as a suitable environment into which to install the first application. An unintended interaction is when a rule would be broken by an interaction between the first application and an application in the candidate environment.
