Model-Driven Development of Advanced User Interfaces

Book excerpt: Model-Driven Development (MDD) has become an important paradigm in software development. It uses models as primary artifacts in the development process. This book provides an outstanding overview as well as deep insights into the area of model-driven development of user interfaces, which is an emerging topic in the intersection of Human-Computer-Interaction and Software-Engineering. The idea of this book is based on the very successful workshop series of “Model-Driven Development of Advanced User Interfaces (MDDAUI)”. It has been written by the leading researchers and practitioners in the field of model-driven development of user interfaces and offer a variety of solutions and examples for • Architectures and environments for the generation of user interfaces • User interface development for specific domains and purposes • Model-driven development in the context of ambient intelligence • Concepts supporting model-driven development of user interfaces
