Abstract:
1. A method for generating an application description for a set of data-described applications that is configured to execute in a virtual environment in one or more operating systems on one or more portable electronic communication devices, comprising: receiving a schema corresponding to the set of data-described applications, wherein, for a given data-described application in the set of data-described applications, the schema defines a process flow by providing values for one or more fields, one or more formats and one or more sequences of data, wherein the schema is specified in a non-procedural language, and wherein the provided values are interpreted by the virtual environment to provide one or more functions associated with the given data-described application; and generating the application description corresponding to the schema by populating the one or more fields defined in the schema with appropriate values, wherein the appropriate values define a process flow in the generated application when executing within the virtual environment in a given operating system in a corresponding portable electronic communication device.
