Abstract
A specification describes the functions that a system provides to its users without explanation of how those functions are implemented. A user interface specification is a description of a system from the perspective of its users (i.e., a description of the view of the system that is provided to users); such a specification is useful for developing user interface designs. A specification of a user interface indicates those functional aspects of the interactive system (data and operations) that are perceivable by the user and the logical organisation of information provided by the interface.
