Design Options For Multimodal Web Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
The capabilities of multimodal applications running on the web are well delineated since they are mainly constrained by what their underlying standard mark up language offers, as opposed to hand-made multimodal applications. As the experience in developing such multimodal web applications is growing, the need arises to identify and define major design options of such application to pave the way to a structured development life cycle. This paper provides a design space of independent design options for multimodal web applications based on three types of modalities: graphical, vocal, tactile, and combined. On the one hand, these design options may provide designers with some explicit guidance on what to decide or not for their future user interface, while exploring various design alternatives. On the other hand, these design options have been implemented as graph transformations per-formed on a user interface model represented as a graph. Thanks to a transformation engine, it allows designers to play with the different values of each design option, to preview the results of the transformation, and to obtain the corresponding code on-demand.

Context-dependent adaptation is becoming a continuous necessity since we access our applications in more and more variegated contexts. Multimodality can be a significant support in such changing settings. We present a solution for obtaining automatic augmentation of Web applications in such a way as to enable them to exploit various combinations of graphical and vocal modalities. We report on t...
متن کاملPlatform for flexible integration of multimodal technologies into web application domain
Most users in either desktop or ubiquitous environments access Web applications from Web browser interfaces. Majority of standard Web applications are still based on GUIs and usually support user-machine interaction using traditional human-machine interfaces (e.g. mouse, keyboard). In order to make access to the Web content more natural and to improve user experience, advanced user interfaces, ...

Whereas HTML is commonly used for creating graphical web applications, VoiceXML is used for voice-enabled web applications. But those applications that contain a big data or interaction a single-modality are not suited for small and mobile devices. The multimodal markup language like the XHTML plus Voice(X+V) is used for multimodal applications that are composed of VoiceXML-based voice applicat...
