چکیده
Advanced graphical interfaces are increasingly dynamic, multimodal and involve multithreaded dialogues. This paper provides a theoretical perspective that can support an analysis of the issues involved in their use: the Interacting Cognitive Subsystems (ICS) framework. This framework is used to examine alternative ways in which information from different data streams can be blended within perception, thought and the control of action. The potential applicability of the core constructs to interface design is considered. The paper concludes by outlining a specific strategy for bringing this form of understanding into closer harmony with the formal methods community in computer science.

Architectural modelling is becoming a central problem for large, complex systems. With the advent of new technologies and user-centred concerns, the user interface portion of interactive systems is becoming increasingly large and complex. In this article, we discuss agent-based architectural styles and show how sound tradeoffs between conflicting requirements and properties can be done using th...

This document constitutes the first version of the “Amodeus system reference model”. The intention of the reference model is to serve as a sound framework for reasoning about the software design of non conventional interactive systems. The model operates at three levels of refinement. Each level covers a distinct phase of the software development process and serves different purposes. The first...

A growing number of HCI models provide insights into humanand system-oriented aspects of design artefacts. Experience with modelling in practice suggests that the more difficult design problems are cross-disciplinary, and there is a need to be able to integrate both the results and the process of HCI modelling. This document reports on the techniques for integration that have been developed and...
متن کاملImplémentation d’une application de simulation selon le modèle PAC-Amodeus
RÉSUMÉ Cet article a trait à la conception logicielle d’un système interactif de simulation suivant le modèle d’architecture PAC-Amodeus ainsi qu’à sa réalisation logicielle en langage objet. Nous présentons une façon originale et efficace de transformer une application de simulation non graphique et non interactive en une application interactive reposant sur une visualisation graphique. Cette ...
متن کاملRepresenting Cognitive Activity in Complex Tasks
While cognitive theory has been recognised as essential for the analysis of Human-Computer Interaction, the representations that have been developed have been directed more towards theoretical purposes than practical application. To bridge the gap between theory and application, representations need to satisfy requirements for broad scope, a unified theoretical basis, and abstraction. Interacti...
