Abstract
A packaging algorithm for providing software applications having reduced footprints is presented. The algorithm determines the minimum required set of methods and classes from the development environment necessary for the application to run. The application is then packaged with only those necessary methods and classes. The resulting application has a reduced footprint which serves to reduce memory requirements needed to store the application and enhance performance of the application at run-time.
