Distributed user interfaces for ambient intelligent environments

This paper presents a model-based user interface for ambient intelligent environments. A task-centred approach is used to design interactive systems. The paper focuses on user interfaces supporting distributed tasks and a visualization of context influences on distributed, user interfaces. Support is considered using a visualization of the environment together with the user interface configurations. The concepts can narrow the gap between HCI design and software engineering.
