resource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource from the remoteUI server device 800 by using a URL. Protocols via which the UIresource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource include extended remoting technology (XRT), remote desktop protocol (RDP), and hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP). However, it will be obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art that other protocols may also be used. - A capability matching unit (not shown) obtains capability information with respect to a UI resource from the remote
UI server device 800. Capability information includes resolution information and codec information with respect to a UI resource. The UIresource obtaining unit 720 may obtain a UI resource that can be processed by the remoteUI client device 700 with reference to capability information obtained by the capability matching unit. - Meanwhile, if a device (e.g., a UPnP control point device) acting as a negotiator between the remote
UI server device 800 and the remoteUI client device 700 exists, the capability matching unit transmits capability information with respect to a UI resource that can be processed by the remoteUI client device 700 to the negotiating device. In this case, the capability matching unit obtains capability information negotiated between the remoteUI server device 800 and the remoteUI client device 700 from the negotiating device.

command transmitting unit 750 transmits an externally input control command to the remoteUI server device 800 by using a UI resource. The controlcommand transmitting unit 750 may use either the same session as a session for obtaining a UI resource, or an asynchronous session independent from the session for obtaining the UI resource. An asynchronous session may be embodied by using asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX). However, it will be obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art that an asynchronous session may be embodied by using any of various other methods. AJAX refers to a web developing technique for authoring a communicative web application and is capable of exchanging and manipulating data asynchronously with a web server. Detailed descriptions of AJAX are omitted here. - In the case where a control command transmitted by the control
command transmitting unit 750 is either a control command to confirm a message or a control message to play back a message, the UIresource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource providing a UI, which displays the complete content of the message, from the remoteUI server device 800. - In the case where a control command transmitted by the control
command transmitting unit 750 is a control command to reply to the message, the UIresource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource providing a UI, which receives external inputs of texts and a control command for transmitting a message, from the remoteUI server device 800. The controlcommand inputting unit 740 receives external inputs of texts and a control command for transmitting a message. The controlcommand transmitting unit 740 transmits the texts and the control command for transmitting the message to the remoteUI server device 800. - Meanwhile, the texts may include commonly used phrases. Thus, the UI
resource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource providing a UI, which displays a list of commonly used phrases and receives inputs of commands for selecting commonly used phrases, from the remoteUI server device 800. The controlcommand inputting unit 740 receives an external input of a command for selecting a commonly used phrase. The controlcommand transmitting unit 750 transmits the command for selecting a commonly used phrase to the remoteUI server device 800. The UIresource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource providing a UI, which displays reply texts including selected commonly used phrases, from the remoteUI server device 800. - In the case where a control command transmitted by the control
command transmitting unit 750 is a control command to forward the message, the UIresource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource providing a UI, which displays a list of telephone numbers and associated users, and receives external inputs of commands for selecting telephone numbers, from the remoteUI server device 800. The controlcommand inputting unit 740 receives external inputs of the control command for selecting telephone numbers. The controlcommand transmitting unit 740 transmits the control commands for selecting telephone numbers to the remoteUI server device 800. The UIresource obtaining unit 720 obtains a UI resource providing a UI, which displays selected telephone numbers and reply texts, from the remoteUI server device 800. -

Examples of the messages received by themessage receiving unit 810 include MMS messages and SMS messages, but are not limited thereto. - The
event handler unit 820 transmits an event message, which includes a URL for accessing a UI resource providing a UI notifying the receipt of a message, to a remoteUI client device 700. - The UI
resource transmitting unit 830 transmits a UI resource to the remoteUI client device 700 in response to a request from the remoteUI client device 700. Protocols via which the UIresource transmitting unit 830 transmits a UI resource include XRT, RDP, and HTTP. However, it will be obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art that other protocols may also be used. - A capability matching unit (not shown) transmits capability information with respect to a UI resource to the remote
UI client device 700. Capability information includes resolution information and codec information with respect to a UI resource. The remoteUI client device 700 may obtain a UI resource that can be processed by the remoteUI client device 700 with reference to capability information obtained by the capability matching unit. - Meanwhile, if a device (e.g., a UPnP control point device) acting as a negotiator between the remote
