“…The notation is useful both as a means of communicating the behaviour of the dialog layer to designers and as input for a compiler that outputs the interface source code. SINGH S. et al [16] on their side propose a user interface management system (Chisel) that generates graphical user interfaces based on a detailed description of the semantic commands supported by the application. Chisel selects the interaction techniques, determines their attributes and places them on the display device screen.…”

The use of social networks is still confined to infrastructure-based networks such as the Internet. However, many situations (conferences, fairs, etc.) may require the implementation and rapid deployment of an ad-hoc application for disseminating information: we call this type of application, Ad-hoc Social Network. These applications are necessarily distributed, deployable on mobile units, etc. They therefore inevitably share the same characteristics as those inherent in ad-hoc mobile networks and make them good candidates for their deployment. In this paper, by using techniques from the field of generative programming, we propose an approach to produce environments for generating such applications from their specifications in a domain-specific language. By applying this approach, we have developed SMGenerator, an environment for generating mobile ad-hoc social network applications for Android devices. Moreover by using SMGenerator, we easily generated the ConfInfo application: an ad-hoc social network application for disseminating information to participants in a scientific manifestation.

“…To solve this problem, some tools use automatic generation so that the tool makes many of these choices from a much higher-level specification. Many of these tools, including Mickey [74], Jade [114], Chisel [95], and DON [39] have concentrated on creating menus and dialog boxes. Chisel and Jade allow the designer to use a graphical editor to edit the generated interface if it is not good enough.…”

Almost as long as there have been user interfaces, there have been special software systems and tools to help design and implement the user interface software. Many of these tools have demonstrated significant productivity gains for programmers, and have become important commercial products. Others have proven less successful at supporting the kinds of user interfaces people want to build. This article discusses the different kinds of user interface software tools, and investigates why some approaches have worked and others have not. Many examples of commercial and research systems are included. Finally, current research directions and open issues in the field are discussed.

“…Recent work focuses on new layers for intelligent control over presentation style [7]. The UofA* UIMS [22] separates dialog control from interface style. Interface style is generated automatically.…”

The ITS architecture separates applications into four layers. The action layer implements back-end application functions. The dialog layer defines the content of the user interface, independent of its style. Content specifies the objects included in each frame of the interface, the flow of control among frames, and what actions are associated with each object. The style rule layer defines the presentation and behavior of a family of interaction techniques. Finally, the style program layer implements primitive toolkit objects that are composed by the rule layer into complete interaction techniques. This paper describes the architecture in detail, compares it with previous User Interface Management Systems and toolkits, and describes how ITS is being used to implement the visitor information system for EXPO '92.
