Abstract

Designing a large application user interface is an iterative process. Commonly used tools lack models to support this iterative process. Research on model-driven UI design has over the years focused on modeling UI at a higher level of abstraction but lacked support during in the iteration process. This paper briefly presents the context of our research - transforming a business model into a base UI model for further customization. Specifically, we present a feature that helps reflect changes from the business model in the user interface design tool. We designed it so that the human designers can choose to react to these changes as they see appropriate. The technique is one of our attempts to apply the model-drive approach to better support design iteration through requirement changes.
