In this case, the software registered and executed through the step S320 may display the current screen to display the same work screen as before through the GUI screen output unit 120 even when the user of the client terminal 100 subsequently accesses the personal homepage. Supporting a function of storing in the database 230 of the server group 200.

That is, as shown in FIG. 11, in the screen configuration displayed through the GUI screen output unit 120 of the client terminal 100, when the current screen storage item of the program start and configuration menu 122 is clicked, the GUI is displayed. The controller 170 collects coordinate values, size values, and unique numbers of executed software through all the window windows opened through the multi-document interface 160, and transmits them through the data transmitter 182. The value, size value, and unique number of the executed software are received through the data receiving unit 273 of the server group 200, and the data control unit 280 stores the values and numbers in the database 230.

On the other hand, after the step S330, when the user of the client terminal 100 clicks the corresponding software through the input unit 110, the GUI control unit 170 calls the screen corresponding to the software to the web service server 220 ( S340).

Thereafter, after receiving the call of the software through the step S340, the data controller 280 finds the corresponding software information in the database 230 and simultaneously loads it on the graphical user interface (GUI) of the client terminal 100. When the software to be transmitted is transmitted, the corresponding software is executed as shown in FIG. 12 (S350).

Then, the user of the client terminal 100 stores the data created while using and executing the corresponding software in the database 230 of the server group 200, and transmits and stores the media file to the media server 240, The general document file is transmitted to the file server 250 and stored, and the real time message between the client terminal 100 and another terminal is transmitted to the real time communication relay server 260 (S360).
