Abstract

We discuss a number of application trends such as distribution, mobility and multimedia integration with respect to human-computer interaction, and point out that these aspects can not be abstracted in user interface development. Thus, we propose a software engineering framework for integrated treatment of different application aspects. Embedded in this framework, UI development is supported by a structuring approach based on UI aspects, and by a tuplespace-based architecture. UI aspects capture distinct design decisions and are semantically supported by specialized tools. The tuplespace-based architecture serves for integration of heterogeneous tools and for flexible UI management.
