In the context of UMTS mobile applications require the consistency of information, and the configuration of interfaces and applications. These requirements can be depicted by subtle problem fields as they are described in this paper. In the mid 90th multi-agent systems (MAS) have been invented into the field of mobile applications. The desired alleviation of the problem fields can be achieved by the expansion of MAS by planning. Preliminary first ideas of these methods are discussed for mobile applications. A simple prototypical scenario for the configuration of mobile interfaces demonstrates the promising combination of MAS and planning.
