Abstract :
This paper clarifies theoretical assumptions about the conceptual multi-device design and presents a practical implementation for e-learning applications. Interfaces are generated automatically for handhelds (smartphone, Pocket PC, etc.) maintaining the desktop look and feel with the same actions flow for a given task. First prototypes were better evaluated than a successful commercial approach. Usability evaluations will be conducted to investigate the advantages of this proposal for the distance learning.
