Abstract: A computer system includes first, second and third computers. Preferably, e first computer includes a first storage device storing a document written in hypertext markup language (HTML), the HTML document including an applet tag for invoking a Universal Client device and computer readable first instructions for generating the Universal Client device, and a first communications device permitting the HTML document and the first instructions for generating the Universal Client device to be downloaded to a second computer, while the second computer includes a second storage device storing computer readable second instructions for permitting the second computer to utilize a World Wide Web browser providing a JAVA.TM.

Abstract: A Universal Client with a self-contained scripting language called GUIScript allows computing systems of varying architectures linked to the Internet or connected by an Intranet to run the same application software without modification or recompilation. Preferably, the computer system includes a computer architecture independent device for generating and displaying a graphic user interface (GUI) on a client computer operatively connected to a server computer. More specifically, the device includes elements: for handling network protocols; for presenting a plurality of GUI objects to thereby form a GUI; for generating scripts defining respective ones of the GUI objects; for generating a GUIScript defining the GUI; for sending one of the scripts and the GUIScript; for receiving one of the scripts and the GUI script; and for scripting both behavior of a program responsive to operator interaction with one of the GUI objects and client-server commands unrelated to the GUI objects.

Abstract: An operating method for a computer architecture independent device generating and displaying a graphic user interface (GUI) on a client computer operatively connected to a server computer includes steps for scripting both behavior of a program responsive to operator interaction with one of the GUI objects and client-server commands unrelated to the GUI objects, storing scripts defining respective GUI objects on the server computer, storing a GUIScript defining the GUI on the server computer, handling network protocols defining communications between the server and the client computers, sending one of the scripts and the GUIScript from the server computer to the client computer, receiving one of the scripts and the GUI script on the client computer, and presenting a plurality of GUI objects to thereby form a GUI on the client computer.

Abstract: A transceiver system comprises transceivers and a controller in communication with the transceivers. Each of the transceivers comprises an emitter, a receiver operatively connected to the emitter, a primary data path operatively connected to the receiver, a secondary data path operatively connected to the receiver, a statistical unit operatively connected to the secondary data path and the controller and a display device operatively connected to the primary data path.

Abstract: A method for operating a computer architecture independent device for genting and displaying a graphic user interface (GUI) includes steps for generating scripts defining respective GUI objects, generating a GUI script defining the GUI, storing one of the scripts and the GUI script, deciphering one of the scripts and the GUI script, scripting behavior of a program responsive to operator interaction with one of the GUI objects, and presenting a plurality of GUI objects to thereby form the GUI.

Abstract: A Universal Client with a self-contained scripting language called GUIScript forms a computer architecture independent device for generating and displaying a graphic user interface (GUI). Preferably, the computer executing the Universal Client includes circuitry for presenting a plurality of GUI objects to thereby form a GUI, for generating scripts defining respective ones of the GUI objects, for generating a GUISCRIPT defining the GUI, for storing one of the scripts and the GUISCRIPT, for reading one of the scripts and the GUI script; and for scripting behavior of a program responsive to operator interaction with one of the GUI objects.
