The technology of the present invention allows the creation of a single master document, called a script, to serve multiple functions by defining a set of data fields as well as a hierarchy of organization in terms of token-value pairs. By applying a "distillation" process the content of the script may be optimized, effectively compressing the script for various purposes such as user interface generation, data processing, or data transmission. The size of a set of data records, for example, may be greatly reduced by separating the content of the data from the meaning, permitting a computer with limited resources such as a hand-held unit to transmit a very large amount of data in a small data record along with a "meaning token". The distilled data package may then be expanded by the receiving unit using the "meaning token" in the package, which contains the instructions for the expansion process. Additionally, the script allows automatic creation of complex user interfaces and database storage without human intervention.
