Abstract

A graphical user interface for a data processing device or system has a plurality of menu options arranged in multiple pages. The menu options are dynamically distributed among the pages in accordance with a user history to reduce the effort of user-navigation among the options. A dynamically adaptable GUI is relevant to remote controls, Internet portals or e-commerce sites.
