“…With respect to conceptual work in the domain of model-based user interface descriptions that studies the various abstraction levels of user interface design [27,16], the main novel features of our interaction description language affect the level of the "Abstract User Interface 6 ." At this level, the descriptions of "Abstract Interaction Objects" [16] are independent of the concrete platform and interaction modality and are, rather, described in terms of their "semantics" [26].…”

“…At this level, the descriptions of "Abstract Interaction Objects" [16] are independent of the concrete platform and interaction modality and are, rather, described in terms of their "semantics" [26]. While Paternò and Meixner refer to the semantics of user interfaces, we consider the semantics of the interaction itself and identified three concrete components, or dimensions, of the interaction semantics that we detailed in Section 4.2.…”

With ever more everyday objects becoming "smart" due to embedded processors and communication capabilities, the provisioning of intuitive user interfaces to control smart things is quickly gaining importance. We present a model-based interface description scheme that enables automatic, modality-independent user interface generation. User interface description languages based on our approach carry enough information to suggest intuitive interfaces while still being easily producible for developers. This is enabled by describing the atomic interactive components of a device and capturing the semantics of interactions with the device. We propose a taxonomy of abstract sensing and actuation primitives and present a smartphone application that can act as a ubiquitous device controller. An evaluation of the mobile application in a laboratory setup, home environments, and an educational setting as well as the results of a user study highlight the accessibility of the proposed scheme for application developers and its suitability for controlling smart devices.

“…A thorough review of task models can be found in and a taxonomy for the comparison of task models has been developed by Meixner & Seissler (2011). In our chapter we focus on task models using the Concur Task Tree (CTT) notation as defined by Paternò et al (1997).…”

“…Especially the second factor, as also argued by Meixner & Seissler (2011), makes it advisable to specify interfaces on some sort of abstract level, from which operational code can be generated automatically, or at least in some semi-automated way. This aim is quite in contrast to traditional, mostly syntactic specification levels.…”

Ao meu orientador Professor Daniel Schwabe pela confiaça e incentivo para vencer os desafios. À Profa. Simone Barbosa pelos ensinamentos e ao Prof. Edward Hermann por ter atendido prontamente a minha solicitação de participação da banca de avaliação desta dissertação.A todos do laboratório GIGA / PUC-Rio pelo incentivo contínuo e ao Prof. Raul Nunes pelo apoio incondicional para que me decicasse a esse trabalho.Ao meu grande amigo Mauricio Bomfim que desde sempre me estimulou a não desistir e realizar essa conquista.Meu pai, mãe, irmão e a minha família que nunca duvidou da minha capacidade, tanto os parentes mais próximos quanto à querida família chilena.E em especial a minha amada esposa Lucimila, testemunha do meu esforço. Description Languages) foram propostas com o intuito de oferecer um nível de abstração para que o projetista não precise focar a atenção em aspectos mais concretos durante o desenvolvimento de uma interface. Esse trabalho apresenta uma proposta para modelagem e geração de interfaces de aplicações web baseadas em regras de produção. Essas regras definem critérios para as situações de: acionamento de uma interface, seleção dos elementos que participam da composição abstrata e do mapeamento dos widgets concretos que serão utilizados na etapa de renderização. Essa proposta contempla um método para modelagem das interfaces, uma arquitetura de implementação e um ambiente de autoria e execução dos modelos de interface. Também será apresentada uma arquitetura para construção de widgets concretos, uma máquina de interpretação e renderização de interfaces. O objetivo geral da proposta é conseguir projetar interfaces mais sensíveis aos dados e aos contextos de uso, cobrir certas situações de adaptação e gerar interfaces mais flexíveis e reutilizáveis. Palavras-chaveInterfaces; Adaptação; Regras; Desenvolvimento Dirigido por Modelos; Web Semântica. Today there is a countless number of applications developed for the World Wide Web. These applications have user interfaces that should be able to adapt to several usage scenarios, content and context changes and also to be compatible with multiple browsers and devices. Furthermore, the design and maintenance of interfaces that need adjustments depending on the business rules of the application require much effort during the development life cycle of an application. In order to assist in the design of these interfaces, some UIDL's (User Interface Description Languages) have been proposed aiming at providing a level of abstraction so that the designer does not need to immediately focus attention on concrete aspects during the development of an interface. This work presents a proposal for modeling and generating interfaces of web applications based on production rules. These rules define criteria for situations determining the activation of an interface; for the selection the elements that participate in the abstract composition and also for the mapping of specific widgets that will be used in the rendering stage. The proposal contemplates a method for modelin...
