Abstract
Developing Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) for mobile applications is a difficult task. Modern applications frequently need to interact with humans that use several devices with different characteristics (such as screen size or operating system). Any application that creates a specific GUI (surely designed for a certain device family) is likely to be rendered and/or behave incorrectly on many other user devices. Moreover, user interactions also need to be adapted to the preferences of each specific user and be learned from user context. The above challenges delegate every single application to have multiple versions of its GUI to be correctly executed on every possible device and operating system combination, in addition to consider user preferences and context.
In this paper, we propose an architecture based on mobile agents for developing adaptive user interfaces for multiple devices and applications. This architecture makes it possible to further separate GUIs from their underlying logic, allowing GUIs to be specified once and automatically be adapted to different platforms and user preferences without further development. Moreover, our architecture enables GUIs to be composed in a collaborative way by multiple agents and across different devices by automatically adapting them to each device capabilities and user preferences. Thus every application developer is relieved of considering these issues.
