Method and system for designing, analysing and specifying a human-machine interface

摘要

A method for analyzing and specifying a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) may include providing an HMI designing system, constructing an HMI design that includes objects created from the HMI designing system and associating the objects using events and transitions. Objects may include states and screens of a graphical user interface. The method may receive input from a user and describe a human-machine interface using syntax that is based on the user input. The syntax may include graphical representations of states and transitions between the states. The HMI designing system may include a memory to store representations of the human-machine interface, a processor to receive input from a user and determine graphical representations of states and transitions between states, and a display to display the HMI.
