Subject: W3C Workshop: Future Standards for Model-Based User
Interfaces
Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
I am pleased to announce an upcoming W3C Workshop:
Future Standards for Model-Based User Interfaces
13-14 May 2001
Rome, Italy
http://www.w3.org/2010/02/mbui/cfp
Hosted by CNR-ISTI [1]
Co-Chairs: Dave Raggett (W3C) and Fabio Paternò (CNR-ISTI)
Participants will examine the challenges facing Web developers due to
variations in device capabilities, modes of interaction and software
standards, the need to support assistive technologies for
accessibility, and the demand for richer user interfaces. Discussion
will focus on reviewing research on model-based design of context-
sensitive user interfaces in relation to these challenges, and the
opportunities for new open standards in the area of Model-Based User
Interfaces.
