R: Standardisation of UI modeling in OMG

Yes, the authors are mainly a group at Polytechnic of Milan and one of its
spin-off (WebRatio) who work on modelling web applications and have a tool
supporting it.

 

I remember that one of them contacted me and I explained the goals of the
W3C group, which seem different, and said  that they could contribute to it
as well.

Oggetto: Re: Standardisation of UI modeling in OMG

 

Dear Gerritt,

 

thank you for signaling this, which is indeed an interesting effort. 

 

At a quick glance, my impression is that this is a language for the
specification of concrete user interfaces in the graphical modality, vastly
inspired to WebML, with which I have some acquaintance. 

 

It is well-structured in terms of a MOF-compliant metamodel and it is
probably something to consider when turning to then definition of the CUI
model, if this group should do that, or to define a mapping towards this a
way of concretising the AUI in a graphical form.

Dear colleagues,

 

I would like to forward an email by Jan Van den Bergh to you. 

Does anyone is aware of IFML? Until now I did not have time to look into the
PDF document.

 

On a first glance the OMG effort seems to be interesting for our work. Maybe
there is a chance discussing both efforts at a joined meeting in future?

 

Best regards

Gerrit

Betreff: Standardisation of UI modeling in OMG

 

Hi Gerrit,

 

I just noticed a relatively recent standaridisation effort in OMG regarding
user interfaces:

 

Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML)

http://www.omgwiki.org/IFML/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=ifml_submission_v0.2.3.1
.pdf

 

 

Maybe relevant for the standardisation efforts at W3C.

 

Kind regards,

Jan
