Modelling and Generation of Graphical User Interfaces in the TADEUS Approach

  • Conference paper
Design, Specification and Verification of Interactive Systems ’95

Part of the book series: Eurographics ((EUROGRAPH))

Abstract

The goal of the TADEUS-approach (TAsk-based DEvelopment of USer interface software) is the task-oriented and user-centred development of graphical user interfaces (GUI). For this reason TADEUS is a methodology as well as a supporting environment for GUI development. An overview about the TADEUS approach is given in this paper. The TADEUS Dialogue graph, a new specification technique for GUI, and the generation of GUI based on Dialogue graphs are described.
