- Abstract
- Today's web sites are increasingly being accessed through a wide variety of computing platforms rang-ing from the workstation to a laptop and through mul-tiple access devices such as Internet Screen Phone, TV Set Top box, PDA, and cellular phones. Web sites are rarely designed and developed to fit such a large variety of contexts of use as each context (e.g. each computing platform, each device) has its own set of constraints. This paper describes a model-based approach for reengineering web pages into a presentation and a dialog model stored with MIMIC, a model-based user-interface specification language. These models are then further exploited to reengineer other user interfaces either for the same context of use (by changing presentation design options) or for different contexts of use (by changing properties of computing platform model). For this purpose, we have designed three key elements of the presentation model— presentation units, logical windows, and abstract interaction objects and two key elements in the dialog model: navigational structure and transition
