Abstract

This paper introduces a Generic Language for Interface DEvelopment (GLIDE) that supports the rapid prototyping of Graphical User Interfaces for the Agents Channeling ContExt Sensitive Services (ACCESS) architecture. ACCESS is an open agent-based framework that enables the fabrication and deployment of context aware applications. GUIs developed for ACCESS are contained within dynamic composite objects that are composed of a number of interacting components. Scripts written in GLIDE define the structure of the GUI's composite object and abstract out inter-component dependencies, thus ensuring that the GUI constituents remain modular, extensible and reusable. The GLIDE framework acts as a semantic model of the interface and enables the system to dynamically reconfigure and reorganize itself at run-time so as to adapt to user interaction. Additionally, GLIDE provides a mechanism to ensure that the abstract composition of the interface remains consistent across a range of ubiquitous devices.
