Abstract

This paper describes our experience in the domain of graphical user interfaces (UI, GUI) in multiwindowing environment. This experience was gained on applied research projects and on product developments in the Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) area. The results are a UI development methodology based on a UI specification model called the Linguistic Model, adialogue specification technique extending ATNs to event driven GUI, and the RAID system composed of the Navigator and Explorer tools.
