An Iterative and Incremental Process for Interaction Design through Automated GUI Generation

摘要

Model-driven generation of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for multiple devices requires a model representing an interaction design. High-quality interaction models are a prerequisite for achieving a good level of usability for the corresponding applications. Our tool-supported process facilitates the exploration and evaluation of interaction design alternatives in an iterative and incremental manner, using automated GUI generation to achieve a running application more quickly and with reduced effort in comparison to manual (prototype) development. This allows the designer to quickly find a suitable alternative and to build more complex applications incrementally.
