Task analysis meets prototyping: seeking seamless UI-development

This full-day tutorial introduces a seamless development approach for user interface generation, based on the user-centered Groupware Task Analysis GTA, and the task-based design technique and tool TADEUS (Task Analysis / Design / End User Systems). The seamless procedure ensures (i) for the developers consistency and semantic richness throughout analysis and design, and (ii) for end users context-sensitive and immediate feedback of analysis and design inputs through prototyping from analysis/design representations. The tutorial is held in participatory style and introduces the background, goals, experiences, methodology to be followed, methods and tools to use. It also provides hand-on experiences with existing tools to be used along the lines of development. The methodology will be explained and experienced along one or more projects the participants will identify and specify according to their interest and profile.
