I would recommend the accessibility API, since that can be used to find all the windows on screen as well as change their position and size. (URL: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Accessibility/cocoaAXIntro/cocoaAXintro.html)
Unfortunately, that won't let you use any of the normal cocoa methods for manipulating windows, but unless something has been added to Leopard that I wasn't aware of, this might be your only option.

Hi,

   I am developing a Cocoa based application, which will access other
application's window and do some resize  operations.

   In Cocoa, is there any way to get other applications(includes
non-scriptable ) window references?

Thanks,
- Apparao.
