....in the platform model. Similarly, it is possible to represent the amount of screen space required by each presentation structure in the presentation model. Then we can build an intelligent mediator agent that dynamically selects the appropriate presentation model for each device (fig. 7) [1,2]. We are currently developing a language for specifying mapping rules that can be applied by a rulebased mediator. 4.2.3. Generating a Presentation Structure. Under our proposed architecture, it is still left to the human designer to specify a set of alternative presentation structures. However, ....

....engineering appears as an ill structured problem [10] Some studies were concerned with the understanding of software engineering methodologies in A.I. 6] but most of the research work is focused on knowledge representation schemes suitable for software engineering processes and constructs [9,1]. The approach chosen to address this problem was to consider software design as a problem solving task. Following the classical problem solving methodology of A.I. the problem spaces relevant to software design were identified. Their respective states, operators, and rules were designed and ....

Such experiments, which include interactive data base question answering systems [Arens et al. 88] explainable expert systems [Moore Swartout 90] and tutoring systems [Moore 89] can then be compared to human human interactions and judged on the grounds of discoursal and functional adequacy, and shortcomings due to the simplifications can be identified, studied, and corrected.

....interface elements. Early work in the visualization of simulations can be found in Steamer [Hol84] and the Process Visualization System [Fol86] This approach separates the dynamics of the application from the specific presentation to the user. Typical UIMS in fact support this same separation [Are88, Wie90, and Kim93]. DON [Kim93] consists of an application model (containing both data and control models) a design process model supporting top down iterative design and graphic design knowledge to support the layout process. An expert system, rule based approach is used. ITS [Wie90] is similar but emphasizes the ....

....protocols mentioned in Section 2.4, heavily depends on the fact that the world axioms have very limited expressiveness. If arbitrary first order formulas are permitted, as in krypton, the computation of instance relationships becomes much more complicated. In a presentation planning application [3], the information associated with the concepts in MSC(c) might be used to decide how to represent a given object. In a database or information retrieval application, MSC(c) can be used to index the data objects by the concepts in MSC(c) 4, 6, 50] Query processing can then be implemented as ....

.... approach to multimedia presentation planning, the question of clustering and allocating information to appropriate media is handled simply by fixed rules that specify exactly what medium is to be used for each particular data type, as in the following rule from the Integrated Interfaces system [2]: 1. Ships locations are presented on maps. For generality, portability, and flexibility, this is clearly not a satisfactory solution. For this reason, most approaches generalize this type of rule by using features, instead of data types and media, in both sides of the rule. One possible ....
