  • Comprehensive Support for Developing Graphical Highly
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF J-Iuan -Chao Keh for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science presented on July 29. 1991 Title:Comprehensive Support for Developing Graphical. Highly Interactive User Interface Systems A Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: ed G. Lewis The general problem of application development of interactive GUI applications has been addressed by toolkits, libraries, user interface management systems, and more recently domain-specific application frameworks. However, the most sophisticated solution offered by frameworks still lacks a number of features which are addressed by this research: 1) limited functionality -- the framework does little to help the developer implement the application's functionality. 2) weak model of the application -- the framework does not incorporate a strong model of the overall architecture of the application program. 3) representation of control sequences is difficult to understand, edit, and reuse -- higher-level, direct-manipulation tools are needed. We address these problems with a new framework design calledOregon Speedcode Universe version 3.0 (OSU v3.0) which is shown, by demonstration,to overcome the limitations above: 1) functionality is provided by a rich set of built-in functions organizedas a class hierarchy, 2) a strong model is provided by OSU v3.0 in the form ofa modified MVC paradigm, and a Petri net based sequencing language which together form the architectural structure of all applications produced by OSU v3.0. 3) representation of control sequences is easily constructed within OSU v3.0 using a Petri net editor, and other direct manipulation tools builton top of the framework. In ddition: 1) applications developed in OSU v3.0 are partially portable because the framework can be moved to another platform, and applicationsare dependent on the class hierarchy of OSU v3.0 rather than the operating system of a particular platform, 2) the functionality of OSU v3.0 is extendable through addition of classes, subclassing, and overriding of existing methods.

An object-oriented framework is a set of classes that embodies an abstract design for solutions to a family of related prob- lems. The work presented is based on and has its origin in industrial contexts where object-oriented frameworks have been developed, used, evolved and managed. Thus, the results are based on empirical observations. Both qualitative and quanti- tative approaches have been used in the studies performed which cover both tech- nical and managerial aspects of object-oriented framework technology. Historically, object-oriented frameworks are large monolithic assets which require several design iterations and are therefore costly to develop. With the requirement of building larger applications, software engineers have started to compose multiple frameworks, thereby encountering a number of problems.

Myers Graphical User Interface Programming - 2 51.1. Introduction Almost as long as there have been user interfaces, there have been special software systems and tools to help design and implement the user interface software. Many of these tools have demonstrated significant productivity gains for programmers, and have become important commercial products. Others have proven less successful at supporting the kinds of user interfaces people want to build. Virtually all applications today are built using some form of user interface tool [Myers 2000]. User interface (UI) software is often large, complex and difficult to implement, debug, and modify. As interfaces become easier to use, they become harder to create [Myers 1994]. Today, direct manipulation interfaces (also called “GUIs” for Graphical User Interfaces) are almost universal. These interfaces require that the programmer deal with elaborate graphics, multiple ways for giving the same command, multiple asynchronous input devices (usually a keyboard and a pointing device such as a mouse), a “mode free” interface where the user can give any command at virtually any time, and rapid “semantic feedback” where determining the appropriate response to user actions requires specialized information about the objects in the program.

This architecture solves many fundamental problems with application deployment, technical support, data storage, hardware and software upgrades. This thesis is targeted at upgrading and evaluating performance of thin clients in scientific Server Based Computing (SBC). Performance of Linux based SBC was assessed via methods of both quantitative and qualitative research.

  • Design and Implementation of ET++, a Seamless Object-Oriented Application Framework1
    Design and Implementation of ET++, a Seamless Object-Oriented Application Framework1 André Weinand, Erich Gamma, Rudolf Marty Abstract: ET++ is a homogeneous object-oriented class library integrating user interface building blocks, basic data structures, and support for object input/output with high level application framework components. The main goals in designing ET++ have been the desire to substantially ease the building of highly interactive applications with consistent user interfaces following the well known desktop metaphor, and to combine all ET++ classes into a seamless system structure. Experience has proven that writing a complex application based on ET++ can result in a reduction in source code size of 80% and more compared to the same software written on top of a conventional graphic toolbox. ET++ is im- plemented in C++ and runs under UNIX™ and either SunWindows™, NeWS™, or the X11 window system. This paper discusses the design and implementation of ET++. It also reports key experience from working with C++ and ET++. A description of code browsing and object inspection tools for ET++ is included as well. ET++ is available in the public domain.2 Key Words: application framework, user interfaces, user interface toolkits, object-oriented programming, C++ programming language, programming environment 1 Introduction Making computers easier to use is one of the reasons for the current interest in interactive and graphical user interfaces that present information as pictures instead of text and numbers. They are easy to learn and fun to use. Constructing such interfaces, on the other hand, often requires considerable effort because they must not only provide the functionality of conventional programs, but also have to show data as well as manipulation concepts in a pictorial way.
