Abstract: A method and system for outputting data to be viewed on a mobile terminal or other device that has requested the data to be displayed from a data provider. This outputting of viewable data includes: 1) identifying the system parameters of the terminal by a) querying the equipment identification code of the terminal, b) determining from a database the relevant system parameters (e.g., available memory space, displayable character sets, resolution of the display, depth of color, Codec capabilities, video and audio bit rates, streaming capability; 2) converting the data to be displayed and maintained in a terminal-independent data format, into a terminal-dependent data format by selecting a predefined transformation protocol that corresponds to the system parameters of the terminal; 3) executing the transformation of the data to be displayed in accordance with that transformation protocol; and 4) transferring the data to the terminal.
