چکیده

Cross-device application development poses different requirements ranging from the adaptation and distribution of user interfaces, over the migration of application state to the management of data as it is moved around and shared between devices. In particular, the evaluation of multi-device user interfaces becomes a challenge when they are distributed across a range of interaction resources. We present our ongoing work towards a platform for the design and evaluation of cross-device applications that promotes the central concept of a cross-device session useful for both design and evaluation. Our concept enables the tracking and management of the data part of a distributed, multi-device application as it is viewed and updated on different devices as well as the metadata describing the interactions and how the data evolved as a result of them. We illustrate the benefits of our approach for a first cross-device application and discuss how we plan to address the remaining challenges.
