1. A system for generating code to provide content on a display of a device, said system
`comprising:
`
`computer memory storing a registry of:
`
`a) symbolic names required for evoking one or more web components each related to a
`set of inputs and outputs of a web service obtainable over a network, where the symbolic
`names are character strings that do not contain either a persistent address or pointer to an
`output value accessible to the web service, andwhere each symbolic name has an
`associated data format class type corresponding to a subclass of User Interface (UI)
`objects that support the data format type of the symbolic name, and has a preferred UI
`object, and
`
`b) thean address of the web service;
`
`an authoring tool configured to:
`
`define a user interface (UI) object for presentation on the display,
`
`where said defined UI object corresponds to thea web component included in said
`registry selected from thea group consisting of an input of the web service and an
`output of the web service, where each defined UI object is either: 1) selected by a
`user of the authoring tool; or 2) automatically selected by the system as the preferred
`UI object corresponding to the symbolic name of the web component selected by the
`user of the authoring tool,
`
`access said computer memory to select the symbolic name corresponding to the web
`component of the defined UI object,
`
`associate the selected symbolic name with the defined UI object, where the selected
`symbolic name is only available to UI objects that support the defined data format
`associated with that symbolic name, and
`
`produce an Application including the selected symbolic name of the defined UI
`object, where said Application is a device-independent code,; and
`
`produce a Player, where said Player is a device-dependent code;
`such that, wherein, when the Application and Player are provided to the device and
`executed on the device, and when athe user of the device provides one or more input
`values associated with an input symbolic name to an input of the defined UI object,
`
`1) the device provides the user provided one or more input values and corresponding
`input symbolic name to the web service,

`
`

`

`2) the web service utilizes the input symbolic name and the user provided one or
`more input values for generating one or more output values having an associated
`output symbolic name,
`3) said Player receives the output symbolic name and corresponding one or more
`output values and provides instructions for athe display of the device to present an
`output value in the defined UI object.
`
`
`3. The system of claim 1, where said web component is a text chat, a video chat, an image, a
`slideshow, a video, or an RSS feed.
`
`5. The system of claim 1, where said UI object is an input field for a web service.
`
`6. The system of claim 1, where said UI object is an input field usable to obtain said web
`component, where said input field includes a text field, a scrolling text box, a check box, a drop
`down-menu, a list menu, or a submit button.
`
`7. The system of claim 1, where said web component is an output of a web service, is the text
`provided by one or more simultaneous chat sessions, is the video of a video chat session, is a
`video, an image, a slideshow, an RSS display, or an advertisement.
`
`11. The system of claim 1, where said code is provided over said network.
`
`12. The system of claim 1, wherein said defined UI object corresponds to a widget.
`
`13. The system of claim 1, where said Player is activated and runs in a web browser.
`
`15. A method of displaying content on a display of a device having a Player, where said Player is
`a device-dependent code, said method comprising:
`
`
`12. A method of displaying content on a defining a user interface (UI) object for presentation
`on the display of a device utilizing , where said UI object corresponds to a web component
`included in a registry of one or more web components related to inputs and outputsselected
`from a group consisting of an input of a web service obtainable over a networkand an output
`of the web service, where each web component includes a plurality of symbolic names of
`inputs and outputs associated with each web service, and where the registry includes: a)
`symbolic names required for evoking one or more web components each related to a set of
`inputs and outputs of athe web service obtainable over a network, where the symbolic names
`are character strings that do not contain either a persistent address or pointer to an output
`value accessible to the web service, and b) an address of the web service, and where each
`defined UI object is either: 1) selected by a user of an authoring tool; or 2) automatically
`selected by a system as a preferred UI object corresponding to a symbolic name of the web
`component selected by the user of the authoring tool;
`
`b) the address of the web service, said method comprising:
`
`
`
`
`

`IPR2021-01145 Page 00002
`
`

`

`defining a user interface (UI) object for presentation on the display, where said UI object
`corresponds to a web component included in said registry selected from the group
`consisting of an input of the web service and an output of the web service;
`selecting athe symbolic name from said web component corresponding to the defined UI
`object, where the selected symbolic name has an associated data format class type
`corresponding to a subclass of UI objects that support the data format type of the symbolic
`name, and has the preferred UI object;
`
`associating the selected symbolic name with the defined UI object; and
`
`
`producing an Application including the selected symbolic name of the defined UI object,
`where said Application is a device-dependentdevice-independent code; and
`, whereinproducing a Player, where said Player is a device-dependent code;
`such that, when the Application and Player are provided to the device and executed on the
`device, and when athe user of the device provides one or more input values associated with
`an input symbolic name to an input of the defined UI object,
`
`1) the device provides the user provided one or more input values and corresponding input
`symbolic name to the web service,
`
`2) the web service utilizes the input symbolic name and the user provided one or more input
`values for generating one or more output values having an associated output symbolic name,
`
`3) said Player receives the output symbolic name and corresponding one or more output
`values and provides instructions for athe display of the device to present an output value in
`the defined UI object.
`
`
`1417. The method of claim 1215, where said web component is a text chat, a video chat, an
`image, a slideshow, a video, or an RSS feed.
`
`1619. The method of claim 1215, where said UI object is an input field for a web service.
`

`component, where said input field includes a text field, a scrolling text box, a check box, a drop
`down-menu, a list menu, or a submit button.
`
`1821. The method of claim 1215, where said web component is an output of a web service, is the
