An analysis of the generative user interface pattern structure
Stefan Wendler, Detlef Streitferdt · 2015
Abstract — Current business information systems extensively rely on graphical user interfaces (GUIs). These sub-systems enable the interaction between the end user and application kernel services that are essential for the business process instances. Due to dynamic and rapid changes of both business processes and their required services, a strong need for the quick adaptation of GUIs to the occurring changes arose. As both efficiency and usability are essential for the GUI adaptation, model-based development processes that involve patterns and their instantiation for specific GUI contexts have been suggested by ongoing research. Being based on human computer interaction patterns, the new kind of pattern needs to be formalized in order to enable the automated processing of configurable instances by generator tools. However, current research is still at the edge to express the concepts for such
