Abstract

A mobile telecommunications terminal is disclosed, in which an adaptive software development platform corresponding to user interface (UI) or man machine interface (MMI) is effective for the development of application programs and fast changing product specification. The mobile communication terminal having a adaptive software development platform, wherein the platform comprises: an events buffer for storing the signals and events generated by a terminal operating system (OS); an event processor for handling the signals and the events output from the events buffer and for transmitting the signals and events to a corresponding application; and a window manager for providing resources operated by the event processor and controlling the terminal applications operations.

Claims

1. A mobile communication terminal having an Adaptive Software Development Platform (ADSP), the platform comprising:

an events buffer for storing signals and events generated by a terminal operating system (OS);

an event processor for receiving the signals and events from the events buffer and for transmitting the signals and events to a corresponding application; and

a window manager for providing resources from the event processor and for controlling terminal applications operations.

2. The terminal of claim 1, wherein the event processor comprises:

a system events manager managing system initiated signals and events; and

an application events manager managing user initiated signals and events.

3. The terminal of claim 1, wherein the resources comprise form, control, list, table, and field application programming interfaces.

4. An Adaptive Software Development Platform (ADSP) comprising:

an events buffer for storing signals and events generated by a terminal operating system (OS);

an event processor for receiving the signals and events from the events buffer and for transmitting the signals and events to a corresponding application; and

a window manager for providing resources from the event processor and for controlling terminal applications operations.

5. The software development platform of claim 4, wherein the event processor comprises:

a system events manager managing system initiated signals and events; and

an application events manager managing user initiated signals and events.

6. The software development platform of claim 4, wherein the resources comprise form, control, list, table, and field application programming interfaces.

7. An Adaptive Software Development Platform (ADSP) comprising:

a means for storing signals and events generated by a terminal operating system (OS);

a means for receiving the signals and events from the means for storing signals and events, and for transmitting the signals and events to a corresponding application; and

a means for providing resources from the means for receiving and transmitting signals and events, and for controlling terminal applications operations.

8. The software development platform of claim 7, wherein the means for receiving and transmitting signals and events comprises:

a means for managing system initiated signals and events; and

a means for managing user initiated signals and events.

9. The software development platform of claim 7, wherein the resources comprise form, control, list, table, and field application programming interfaces.

10. A mobile communication terminal having an Adaptive Software Development Platform (ADSP) comprising:

a means for storing signals and events generated by a terminal operating system (OS);

a means for receiving the signals and events from the means for storing signals and events, and for transmitting the signals and events to a corresponding application; and

a means for providing resources from the means for receiving and transmitting signals and events, and for controlling terminal applications operations.

11. The terminal of claim 10, wherein the means for receiving and transmitting signals and events comprises:

a means for managing system initiated signals and events; and
