Abstract

A system, method and tangible computer-readable device for dynamic content adaptation on a wireless device are provided. A message including dynamic content adaptation for an application is received on a wireless device. A widget supporting dynamic content adaptation included in the message is retrieved on the wireless device. The widget is launched according to a parameter included in the dynamic content.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

receiving a message including dynamic content adaptation for an application executing on a wireless device;

retrieving a widget configured to execute on the wireless device, wherein the widget supports the dynamic content adaptation included in the message; and

launching the widget according to a parameter included in the dynamic content adaptation.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein retrieving the widget comprises retrieving the widget including at least one of a business logic of an application executing on the wireless device and a display mechanism for displaying the dynamic content.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving the message comprises receiving a string in the message, the string including the parameter identifying the widget.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving the message comprises receiving a string in the message, the string including the parameter identifying an argument for the widget.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving the message comprises receiving a string in the message, the string including the parameter identifying a resource locator.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving the message comprises receiving the parameter in the message being a name-value pair.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the receiving further comprises, receiving the message using an Internet, an E-mail, a short message service, a multimedia message service, an Internet Protocol Media Subsystem or instant messaging.

8. The method of claim 1, when the retrieving is not successful, further comprising:

requesting the widget over a network;

receiving the requested widget; and

storing the widget and attributes associated with the widget in a repository of the wireless device, prior to the launching, wherein at least one attribute corresponds to the parameter.

19. The tangible computer-readable device of claim 1, wherein receiving the message comprises receiving a string in the message, the string including the parameters identifying the widget, identifying arguments for the widget, and identifying a resource locator.

9. A system comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to;

receive a message including dynamic content adaptation for an application executing on a wireless device;

retrieve a widget configured to execute on the wireless device, wherein the widget supports the dynamic content adaptation included in the message; and

launch the widget according to a parameter included in the dynamic content adaptation.

10. The system of claim 9, wherein to retrieve the widget the processor is further configured to retrieve the widget including at least one of a business logic of an application executing on the wireless device and a display mechanism for displaying the dynamic content.

11. The system of claim 9, wherein to receive the message the processor is further configured to receive a string in the message, the string including the parameter identifying the widget.

12. The system of claim 9, wherein to receive the message the processor is further configured to receive a string in the message, the string including the parameter identifying an argument for the widget.

13. The system of claim 9, wherein to receive the message the processor is further configured to receive a string in the message, the string including the parameter identifying a resource locator.

14. The system of claim 9, wherein to receive the message the processor is further configured to receive the parameter in the message, the parameter in the message being a name-value pair.

15. The system of claim 9, wherein to receive the message, the processor is further configured to receive the message using an Internet, an E-mail, a short message service, a multimedia message service, an Internet Protocol Media Subsystem or instant messaging.

16. The system of claim 9, when the retrieving is not successful, the at least one processor is further configured to:

request the widget over a network;

receive the requested widget; and

store the widget and attributes associated with the widget in a repository of the wireless device, prior to the launching, wherein at least one attribute corresponds to the parameter.

17. A tangible computer-readable device having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, causes the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

receiving a message including dynamic content adaptation for an application executing on a wireless device;

retrieving a widget configured to execute on the wireless device, wherein the widget supports the dynamic content adaptation included in the message; and

launching the widget according to parameters included in the dynamic content adaptation.

18. The tangible computer-readable device of claim 17, wherein retrieving the widget comprises retrieving the widget including at least one of a business logic of an application executing on the wireless device and a display mechanism for displaying the dynamic content.

20. The tangible computer-readable device of claim 17, wherein the receiving further comprises, receiving the message using an Internet, an E-mail, a short message service, a multimedia message service, an Internet Protocol Media Subsystem or instant messaging.
