Model-driven UI Development integrating HCI Patterns
Enes Yigitbas, Bastian Mohrmann, Stefan Sauer · 2015
An important criterion for user acceptance of interactive systems is software ergonomics. Therefore, a variety of HCI or usability patterns has been defined in the past. Although HCI patterns promise reusable best-practice solutions, the lack of formalization and effective tool support hinder their usage in a model-driven development process. To overcome this deficit, we propose a model-driven user interface development (MDUID) process that integrates HCI patterns. For showing the feasibility of our approach, we formalized and implemented a set of GUI patterns, a particular category of HCI patterns, based on IFML. We present our pattern application concept and our tool-support based on a customized MDUID process for generating rich internet applications (RIAs).
