Challenges for a task modeling tool supporting a task- based approach to user interface design
نویسنده
چکیده
In a task-based approach to user interface development, the task model is given a leading role among other models. Task modeling is a key activity in the design of a usable user interface. Task patterns that are based on both task and domain models are typical interaction structures that are capturing operations performed onto domain objects. This paper is discussing some key requirements for a task modeling tool aiming to support model transformations in UsiXML: full computer-aided task decomposition, model validation, model simulation, operations with task patterns, and simultaneous access at task and domain model elements based on mapping rules.

FAST HI-FI PROTOTYING BY USING IDEALXML A task-based approach to user interfaces design
Task modeling has become one of the cornerstones of model-based user interface design. Although different task modeling approaches to user interfaces design have been pushed, ConcurTaskTrees notation is becoming a de facto standard in the design of user interfaces including task-based modeling techniques. In this paper, a task-based approach to user interfaces design is introduced inspired by C...
متن کاملMeasuring user's emotional experience in two tools using an integrated method based on task analysis
Background and Objectives: Human factors are critical in the research and development of various products, but the wideness and unclarity of different aspects of these factors make it difficult to extract the demands of users. Studying emotional aspects of users' behavior with respect to products, as well as interviewing them, is considered an efficient tool for extracting design demands. Me...
متن کاملSupport for Task Modeling - A "Constructive" Exploration
Although model-based approaches focusing on task modeling for user-interface design are well accepted among researchers, they are rarely used by industrial developers. Besides a lack of theoretical frameworks for task modeling insufficient tool support might be the reason for the low diffusion of this approach to interactive softwaredevelopment processes. Thus, we explored the leading-edge tool...
متن کاملAutomatic Generation of a Multi Agent System for Crisis Management by a Model Driven Approach
Considering the increasing occurrences of unexpected events and the need for pre-crisis planning in order to reduce risks and losses, modeling instant response environments is needed more than ever. Modeling may lead to more careful planning for crisis-response operations, such as team formation, task assignment, and doing the task by teams. A common challenge in this way is that the model shou...
متن کاملAn Approach to Task Modeling for User Interface Design
The model-based approach to user interface design relies on developing separate models capturing various aspects about users, tasks, application domain, presentation and dialog structures. This paper presents a task modeling approach for user interface design and aims at exploring mappings between task, domain and presentation models. The basic idea of our approach is to identify typical config...
