COMBINING HANDCRAFTING AND AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF USER- INTERFACES FOR PERVASIVE DEVICES

摘要

Application development for multiple pervasive devices requires a methodology that requires less development and management effort than simply rewriting the application for each device. We describe an approach that combines the advantages of automated generation from a single model-based UI description, with handcrafting of interfaces for specific devices. We discuss the infrastructure required to support a hybrid automated generation and hand-crafting system, with particular attention to the issues that arise during application evolution.
