A Model-Driven Approach to Graphical User Interface Runtime Adaptation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Graphical user interfaces play a key role in human-computer interaction, as they link the system with its end-users, allowing information exchange and improving communication. Nowadays, users increasingly demand applications with adaptive interfaces that dynamically evolve in response to their specific needs. Thus, providing graphical user interfaces with runtime adaptation capabilities is becoming more and more an important issue. To address this problem, this paper proposes a component-based and model-driven engineering approach, illustrated by means of a detailed example.

While providing non-visual access to graphical user interfaces has been the topic of research for over 20 years, blind users still face many obstacles when using computer systems. The higher degree of flexibility for both developers and users poses additional challenges. Existing solutions are largely based on either graphical toolkit hooks, queries to the application and environment, scripting...
متن کاملA model-based approach for mixed-initiative context-aware adaptation of graphical user interface
Context-aware adaptation is the key to the success of a user interaction and a support for usability. This fact is recognized and empiricially assessed by the HCI community. A significant amount of research has been conducted to design and develop context-aware adaptation in interactive applications in order to streamline the user interface development lifecycle. It has to be noted that adaptat...
متن کاملA Model-Driven Approach for Developing Adaptive Software Systems
Context-awareness and adaptation are highly interrelated key concepts to build applications for heterogeneous and dynamic execution environments. While gathering, distribution, abstraction, and management of context is examined in research for several years, development of context-aware, adaptive applications, and the relations between context and adaptation are rarely considered. We present a ...

متن کاملA Supportive User Interface for Customization of Graphical-to-Vocal Adaptation
In this paper, we describe an approach to adapting graphical Web pages into vocal ones, and show how the approach is supported by a tool that allows the user to drive the adaptation results by customizing the adaptation parameters. The adaptation process exploits model-based user interface descriptions.
