A user interface system for home appliances with virtual network computing

We propose a new user interface system for supporting advanced interaction devices such as PDAs and cellular phone. Our system allows applications to use traditional user interface systems although a user can navigate the applications through advanced interaction devices. We describe the architecture and the implementation of the prototype system, and show an example and some experiences.
