Dear Colleagues, I am pleased to announce an upcoming W3C Workshop: Future Standards for Model-Based User Interfaces 13-14 May 2001 Rome, Italy http://www.w3.org/2010/02/mbui/cfp Hosted by CNR-ISTI [1] Co-Chairs: Dave Raggett (W3C) and Fabio Paterṇ (CNR-ISTI) Participants will examine the challenges facing Web developers due to variations in device capabilities, modes of interaction and software standards, the need to support assistive technologies for accessibility, and the demand for richer user interfaces. Discussion will focus on reviewing research on model-based design of context- sensitive user interfaces in relation to these challenges, and the opportunities for new open standards in the area of Model-Based User Interfaces. Important dates: Now: Notify us of your interest in participating in the workshop, see the requirements for participation [2]. 2 April: Deadline for submission of your statement of interest, see [2]. 16 April: Acceptance notifications and registration instructions sent. Program and accepted statements of interest posted on the Workshop site. 30 April: Deadline for Registration 13-14 May: Workshop You should consider participating in this workshop if you are in one of the following communities: • Model-Based (or Model-Driven) UI technology vendors and developers, including open source projects. • Companies that own solutions for the development of multi-target, context-sensitive, adaptive User Interfaces. • Companies seeking to exploit Model-Based Approaches internally. • Software vendors or open source projects that currently offer XML- based languages for the description of user interfaces targeted to the desktop environment. • Government organizations seeking to the standardization of UI development. • Academic researchers with an interest in Model-Based UI Development. The Workshop is free of charge and open to anyone, subject to review of their statement of interest and space availability. If you have any questions, please contact Dave Raggett <dsr@w3.org>.
