Multi-device user interface development with composition-oriented user interface design patterns

As the knowledge reuse is becoming more and more crucial, patterns play a more effective way on the knowledge use of the HCI domain. However, some patterns are mostly oriented to different tasks, which are too coarse-grained to be easily implemented. And the relative user interfaces are not provided in these patterns. Furthermore many different patterns are oriented to different models in the model based on UI development, which are hard to be integrated into the UI development tool. On the point of Multi-device UI Development (MD_UID), the Composition-oriented UI Design Pattern (CUIDP) is proposed from the interior model, the presentation characteristic and the behavior feature. In particular, it spans various models of the MD_UID and provides various parameters to users to custom UIs intuitively, which helps the engineering-oriented UI development. As a case, the Grid CUIDP is explicitly described according to the form of CUIDP The algorithm of Grid presentation unit is given, which is oriented to ASP.NET. Finally, the conclusion and the further work are discussed.
