Abstract

In this paper we address the diversity of mobile devices and the related problematic issues with a largely platform-independent approach to development. Our work is motivated by the amount and variety of mobile devices foreseen to reside in future ubiquitous computing environments. To reduce the development effort and to augment data exchange facilities, we present an application framework that abstractly defines common interaction objects in user interfaces on mobile devices.
