Java UI : Effects for Controlling UI Object Access

Most graphical user interface (GUI) libraries forbid accessing UI elements from threads other than the UI event loop thread. Violating this requirement leads to a program crash or an inconsistent UI. Unfortunately, such errors are all too common in GUI programs. We present a polymorphic type and effect system that prevents non-UI threads from accessing UI objects or invoking UI-thread-only meth...

Conventional pharmacologic treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) generally take several weeks to several months to have a clinically meaningful effect. This time lag to response constitutes a major burden for patients and contributes to increased morbidity and mortality. Two published studies in patients with MDD have now provided evidence for rapid and robust antidepressant efficacy o...

Inspector: Interactive UI Specification Tool

When the user interface should be specified, a picture is worth a thousand words, and the worst thing to do is write a natural language specification for it. Although this practice is still common, it is a challenging task to move from text-based requirements and problem-space concepts to a final UI design, and then back. Especially for user interface specification, actors must frequently switc...

Context-Aware UI Component Reuse

Adapting user interfaces (UIs) to various contexts, such as for the exploding number of different devices, has become a major challenge for UI developers. The support offered by current development environments for UI adaptation is limited, as is the support for the efficient creation of UIs in Web service-based applications. In this paper, we describe an approach where – based on a given conte...
