Adaptable Interface Design for Open-architecture Products

Towards a Culture-Adaptable User-Interface Architecture

Culture plays a role in the way humans interact with the machine. It implies changes on the UI to fit cultural needs, practices and preferences. Knowledge on these implications is sparse and insufficient until the moment. Employing culture knowledge as rules in the design and development of software user interfaces looks far to achieve. Even though, user interface designers and developers still...

Adaptable Architecture

In this paper a framework is created for categorizing adaptable architecture. The term adaptable architecture describes an architecture from which specific components can be changed in response to external stimuli, for example the users or environment. This change could be executed by the building system itself, transformed manually or could be any other ability to transform by an external forc...

Agent Paradigm for Adaptable Architecture

Dynamic changes to an architecture is an active area of research within the software architecture community. Architectures must have the ability to react to events and perform architectural changes autonomously. In this paper, we focus on dynamic architectures reconfiguration. Our principle is to use the agent architectural concept to achieve this functionality with respect to some quality attr...

Use-centered interface design for an adaptable administration system for chemical process design

In this paper, the use-centered interface design for an adaptable administration system for chemical process design is presented. On the basis of the main work activities to be supported with the tool, two different analytical evaluation methods were applied to the prototypical original interface. The derived requirements led to the design and implementation of an alternative interface which wa...
