A Visual Formalism for Graphical User Interfaces based on State Transition Diagrams
In this paper we present a “lightweight” visual formalism that can be used to examine the state space complexity of an interface. The method can form a basis for designing, te...

The Chaos of Software Development
In this paper we present a new perspective on the problem of complexity in software, using sound mathematical concepts from information theory such as Shannon’s Entropy [31]. We...

"Pluggable" user models for adaptive hypermedia in education
Most adaptive hypermedia systems used in education implement a single user model – inevitably originally designed for a specific set of circumstances. In this paper we describe ...

FONTE: factorizing ONTology engineering complexity
Because it is difficult to engineer a complex ontology with time, we here consider a method that allows for factorizing the complexity of the engineering process, FONTE (Factoriz...

Using AI techniques to aid hypermedia design
Artificial intelligence techniques have found a number of applications in hypermedia, mostly in two specific areas, user interface, particularly adaptive ones and information sear...
