“In recent years HCI researchers have developed a broad range of new interfaces that diverge from the "window, icon, menu, pointing device" (WIMP) paradigm, employing a variety of novel interaction techniques and devices. Developers of these next generation user interfaces face challenges that are currently not addressed by state of the art user interface software tools. As part of the user interface software community's effort to address these challenges, the concept of a User Interface Description Language (UIDL), reemerge as a promising approach. To date, the UIDL research area has demonstrated extensive development, mainly targeting multi-platform and multi-modal user interfaces. However, many open questions remain regarding the usefulness and effectiveness of UIDLs in supporting the development of next generation interfaces. The aim of this workshop is to bring together both developers of next generation user interfaces and UIDL researchers in an effort to identify key challenges facing this community, to jointly develop new approaches aimed at solving these challenges and finally to consider future spaces for UIDL research.”

“This paper describes a Computer Aided Design system for sketching free-form polygonal surfaces such as terrains and other natural objects. The user manipulates two 3D position and orientation trackers with three buttons, one for each hand. Each hand has a distinct role to play, with the dominant hand being responsible for picking and manipulation, and the less-dominant hand being responsible for context setting of various kinds. The less-dominant hand holds the workpiece, sets which refinement level that can be picked by the dominant hand, and generally acts as a counterpoint to the dominant hand. In this paper, the architecture of the system is outlined, and a simple surface is shown.”

“We present a domain independent object-oriented framework for supporting programming-by-example in user interfaces. It simplifies the construction of domain-specific customizations by providing programming abstractions that are common across domains. It defines three basic abstractions: primitive customization objects encapsulate the recording and replay mechanisms for individual interactive objects in a domain, the modeling component records user's interaction, identifies the user's behavior pattern and creates a simulation agent; and the simulation agents perform the tasks on behalf of the user. This paper describes the methodology as well as design and implementation issues of the proposed framework.”

Proceedings of the ACM CHI 92 Human Factors in Computing Systems Conference June 3-7, 1992, Monterey, California. pp. 321-328. Available online

“The Virtual Reality user interface style allows the user to manipulate virtual objects in a 3D environment using 3D input devices. This style is best suited to application areas where traditional two dimensional styles fall short, but the current programming effort required to produce a VR application is somewhat large. We have built a toolkit called MR, which facilities the development of VR applications. The toolkit provides support for distributed computing, head-mounted displays, room geometry, performance monitoring, hand input devices, and sound feedback. In this paper, the architecture of the toolkit is outlined, the programmer's view is described, and two simple applications are described.”

Proceedings of the 4th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology Hilton Head, South Carolina, United States, 1991, Hilton Head, South Carolina, United States. pp. 19-25. Available online

“The Polhemus Isotrak is often used as an orientation and position tracking device in virtual reality environments. When it is used to dynamically determine the user's viewpoint and line of sight (e.g. in the case of a head mounted display) the noise and delay in its measurement data causes temporal-spatial distortion, perceived by the user as jittering of images and lag between head movement and visual feedback. To tackle this problem, we first examined the major cause of the distortion, and found that the lag felt by the user is mainly due to the delay in orientation data, and the jittering of images is caused mostly by the noise in position data. Based on these observations, a predictive Kalman filter was designed to compensate for the delay in orientation data, and an anisotropic low pass filter was devised to reduce the noise in position data. The effectiveness and limitations of both approaches were then studied, and the results shown to be satisfactory.”

Proceedings of the 4th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technology Hilton Head, South Carolina, United States, 1991, Hilton Head, South Carolina, United States. pp. 107-115. Available online

“An important aspect of interactive systems is the provision of a recovery facility that allows the user to reverse the effects of his interactions with the system. Due to differences between object-oriented and non-object-oriented methodologies, user recovery approaches used for non-object-oriented software are not suitable for object-oriented software. This paper presents an event-object user recovery model for the construction of recovery facilities in object-oriented user interfaces. Our approach divides traditional history/command lists into per-object lists which fit well with object-oriented structure. Unique features of this framework are the hierarchical structure of the local recovery objects that reflect the application structure, its simple semantics, and its ease of implementation, which greatly reduces the effort required by the interface builder to incorporate it into existing object-oriented user interface structures. We introduce this framework by describing the event-object model, defining the protocol used by the local facilities to perform user recovery, and presenting examples of how the framework is used.”

Singh, Gurminder and Green, Mark (1991): Automating the Lexical and Syntactic Design of Graphical User Interfaces: The UofA* UIMS. In ACM Transactions on Graphics, 10 (3) pp. 213-254

“The primary goal of the UofA* UIMS is to address a key problem with UIMSs: their inability to help in the initial design of user interfaces. Because of this inability, most existing UIMSs require the interface designer to work with low level syntactic and lexical detail, which can be very time-consuming and expensive in terms of effort required. The UofA* approach to this problem is to produce the initial design specification and implementation of the user interface automatically, and then enable the interface designer to improve its appearance and effectiveness through an interactive refinement process. The interface designer, in this approach, works at the conceptual and semantic levels of the user interface and produces a high-level description of the commands the interface is to support. Based on this description the syntactic and lexical levels of the interface are automatically designed and implemented. This interface can be refined by the designer to improve the resulting interaction with the user. The UofA* UIMS facilitates exploration in interface design by using user's preferences and designer's guidelines as optional inputs. It allows the creation of interfaces in which many different types of syntaxes can coexist.”

“A high-level UIMS which automatically generates the lexical and syntactic design of graphical user interfaces is presented. The interfaces generated by the UIMS can easily and rapidly be refined by the designer by using highly interactive and graphical facilities. The UIMS accepts a high-level description of the semantic commands supported by the application, a description of the implementation device, and optionally, the end user's preferences. Based on these inputs the UIMS generates graphical user interfaces in which the commands are selected from menus and command arguments are provided through interaction with graphical interaction techniques.”

Proceedings of the 2nd annual ACM SIGGRAPH symposium on User interface software and technology November 13 - 15, 1989, Williamsburg, Virginia, United States. pp. 86-94.

“The UofA User Interface Management System (UIMS) generates graphical user interfaces based on a high-level description of semantic commands supported by the application. A main part of the UIMS, called Chisel, generates the presentation component of interfaces. Chisel selects interaction techniques, determines their attributes, and places them on the screen of the display device. While doing so it is capable of considering device properties, end user's preferences, and interface designer's guidelines. The aim of this paper is to discuss in detail the design and implementation of Chisel.”

“The concepts of a user interface management system (UIMS) and user interface designer have become well known in the user interface and graphics community. Most UIMSs developed so far have concentrated on the efficiency of generating the user interface; the user interface designer's interface has received relatively little attention. We identify the important features of the user interface designer's interface. A UIMS incorporating these features in its interface has been developed, and is described in this paper.”

“A dialogue model is an abstract model that is used to describe the structure of the dialogue between a user and an interactive computer system. Dialogue models form the basis of the notations that are used in user interface management systems (UIMS). In this paper three classes of dialogue models are investigated. These classes are transition networks, grammars, and events. Formal definitions of all three models are presented, along with algorithms for converting the notations into an executable form. It is shown that the event model has the greatest descriptive power. Efficient algorithms for converting from the transition diagram and grammar models to the event model are presented. The implications of these results for the design and implementation of UIMSs are also discussed.”
