ABSTRACT:
In a computer system, the ability to dynamically switch between different user interface types is provided. A directed graph is composed of nodes that each contain user interface information. A first part of the user interface information is common to each of the different user interface types, while a second part of the user interface information corresponds to one of the different user interface types. A presentation front end program selects a user interface type by accessing the user interface information stored in the nodes.
