Abstract :
The specifier of a user-interface describes user-perceivable functions and information organisation in an implementation independent way. The designer is concerned with both the presentation and software structure of the user-interface. The path from specification to software design can be assisted by design patterns. In this paper we examine techniques for specification and the design of both the presentation and software aspects of user-interfaces. We outline our research strategy towards the generation of a specification and design framework for developing user-interfaces
