Title
Ethylene: composants dynamiques pour la mise en œuvre d'IHM plastiques en informatique ambiante
Abstract
Ubiquitous computing introduces new constraints on the way we build interactive systems. Traditionally central- ized, user interfaces (UI) can be distributed across a dy- namic set of heterogeneous devices. In this article, we examine these new kinds of UIs, named plastic UIs, from a software engineering perspective. They are dy- namic adaptable distributed software, and they able to deal with device heterogeneity at multiple levels of ab- straction. However, the generic solutions from distrib- uted software do not take into account the specificity of human-computer interaction. To address these limita- tions, we propose Ethylene, a conceptual and technical framework to develop UIs for ubiquitous computing. Our solution is based on the integration of model driven engineering with a particular combination of component and service oriented approaches, as weel as an original way to overcome the heterogeneity of communication models between components.
