Automatically-generated User Interfaces for Measurement Software Frameworks: a Case Study on Magnetic Permability at Cern

− A technique for generating user interfaces in software frameworks for automatic measurement systems is proposed. The user interface is separated from the application logic with the aim of enhancing flexibility and reusability of the software. A Model-View-Interactor paradigm focuses on the “interaction” between the automatic measurement system, executing test script written by a test engineer, and the application user. This approach has been applied to the flexible software framework for magnetic measurements at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). Experimental results on the application of the proposed technique to a case study of permeability measurement are reported.
