“…A different approach for showing the user interface in the controller device is to have a service interface description that can be read by a controller to dynamically generate a suitable user interface (graphical, speech, gesture, command line, etc.). For example, (Roman, Beck, & Gefflaut, 2000) developed a device independent, XML-based, language for representation of services and the respective dynamic interface generation for mobile devices. The service description language allows the definition of a list of methods with parameters, which can be invoked by the client.…”

Dynamic Graphical User Interface Generation for Web-based Public Display Applications

Public digital displays are moving towards open display networks, resulting in a shift in the focus from single-purpose public displays that are developed with a single task or application in mind, to generalpurpose displays that can run several applications, developed by different vendors. In this new paradigm, it is important to facilitate the development of interactive public display applications and provide programmers with toolkits for incorporating interaction features. An important function of such toolkits is to support interaction with public displays through a users' smartphone, allowing users to discover and interact with the public display applications configured in a given display. This paper describes our approach to providing dynamically generated graphical user interfaces for public display applications that is part of the PuReWidgets toolkit.

“…So is MOCA's invocation model for remote services based on dynamically downloaded bytecode, RMI or IIOP and custom Java classloaders, all together not available on typical wireless information devices. As the authors state in [15], MOCA addresses mainly back-end application logic, and a typical MOCA application is either implementing "traditional Java technologies such as the AWT" or "on the use of servlets that are hosted under MOCA", which are both too heavyweight for small mobile devices. The aspect of context-awareness (see section 3) is not handled within MOCA.…”

In this paper a framework is presented which allows the discovery and execution of services on connected and partially autonomous mobile devices. Discovery and execution procedures are sensitive to the user's context (current location, personal preferences, current network situation etc.). We present a description language for service offers which is used to provide the necessary information for a service registry running on the mobile device itself. Services are executed in an abstract manner (in the sense of a non-specific implementation) from the user's point of view, getting an optimal result with respect to the current context out of a set of parallel invoked service implementations.

“…The work of Manuel Roman et al [13] focuses on enabling access to services from many different devices. This they achieve by having a single XML file describe both the service functionality and the user interface in a device independent manner, and using a device specific XSL style sheet to map user interface components to platform-dependent resources.…”

An approach to providing a seamless end-user experience for location-aware applications

With an increasing number of businesses considering the possibility of launching location-aware, mobile commerce applications, the quality of the end-user experience will become more and more critical. We propose dynamic boolonarI~ and location domains as mechanisms to give consumers simple and straightforward access to a dynamically changing set of locationbased services. Dynamic bookmarks are descriptions of services, which are bound to actual, registered, services as a user's location changes. Location domains provide meaningful location context for location-aware services. We discuss the motivation and background of our work in progress, describe the key concepts involved, and present a system architecture we have adopted.
