Recently, improved capabilities of the mobile device is represented in a demand for same level services with the desktop device services but the service that is developed for desktop device is not compatible with mobile devices. To fulfill these demands, it is needed to provide services with considering features of mobile devices. This means that CP(Contents Provider) must do contents transformation in order to make suitable contents on mobile device. For managing some information that is required to do contents transformation, we need the DDR(Device Description Repository) which can store and search a variety of device information to grasp the constraints on the mobile device as compared with desktop devices. Also, defining standard API is required to offer a service regardless of platforms. Hereupon W3C(World Wide Web Consortium) introduced DDR Simple API. However that specifies the limited functions of DDR, which is inevitable to be added for more precise search services. In this paper, we expanded DDR Simple API and implemented DDR that supports DDL(Device Description Language) conversion and storing and searching device information.

The demand against the contents service which is various with improvement capability of the mobile device. But the capability of heterogeneous mobile device to display contents has a difference from the side of the hardware, software, network conditions so the adaptation of contents is a solution to overcome this difference. This adaptation of contents is based on profile(DDL : Device Description Language) but there is no system which manages the profile efficiently. In this paper, we designed independent DDR(Device Description Repository) system that offers storage and optimized profiles processed by searching and recombination with request conditions.
