UIML.Net: An Open UIML Renderer for the .Net Framework

Overview As the diversity of available computing devices increases it becomes more difficult to adapt User Interface development to support the full range of available devices. One of the difficulties is the different GUI libraries: to use an alternative library or device one is forced to redevelop the interface completely for the alternative GUI library. In contrast with other similar approaches UIML has matured and has some implementations proving its usefulness. This paper introduces the first UIML renderer for the .Net framework; a framework that can be accessed by different kinds of programming languages and can use different kinds of widget sets.
