Abstract :
The GEMS´s main idea is based on a client platform for the mobile device, which supports a finite set of GUI templates, i.e. visual forms that dictate the layout of the mobile phone screen. The set of GUI templates contains different kinds of menu lists, text editors and input forms, and text layouts. A mobile application for this client platform is a graph of GUI template instances, where each GUI template instance is a reference to a predefined visual form plus text and references to preloaded texts and graphics that are used to fill in the visual form.
