A method is used for employing computing services via a network. The method includes the following steps. A client searches the network and finds out at least two computing services which can be used by the remote connecting module. The at least two computing services includes a first computing service and a second computing service. The client evaluates capabilities of the first computing service and the second computing service respectively. The client checks if the first computing service and the second computing service can finish a task cooperatively. The client composes a task distribution flow according to the capability of the first computing service and the capability of the second computing service. The client distributes the task to the first computing service and the second computing service according to the task distribution flow. The client receives a finished task from the first computing service and the second computing service.

A method for managing multimedia resources in an embedded electronic device is disclosed. The method includes at least one graphical user interface (GUI) application module sending a multimedia resource request to an application programming interface (API) module. The API module provides a unified interface for the at least one GUI application module to retrieve the multimedia resources. The API module requests a source management module to connect to a plurality of multimedia resources. A plurality of multimedia sub-modules of the source management module retrieves the corresponding multimedia resources to the at least one GUI application module through the API module and displaying on a display.
