In this paper, we propose a hierarchical design methodology for grid access from handheld devices. After determining all user interactions required and technologies available, they are arranged in layers. All functions in a layer are also supported by all underlying layers. By doing so, the designer is less conditioned by the constraints of a specific, out-of-context platform. Additionally, in a stratified modular design, many software components can be re-used. We present a prototype to access Condor from two neighbor layers: PDAs and cell phones.
