Abstract
Large information systems catering to different kinds of users increasingly have to interface with different kinds of target platforms and applications. Since the capabilities of each of these target platforms and applications are likely to be very varied, the interaction semantics of the information system also needs to be redesigned for each case. However, from the point of view of the information system, each interaction serves a specific purpose determined by the functional specification of the information system. Hence redesigning interactive behavior for each target platform or application amounts to a redundant design activity. In this paper, we address this problem by explicitly specifying semantics of the different kinds of interaction that the information system carries out with its environment. This specification is done using an abstract syntax which can then be translated to different target platforms for implementing the interface. 1 Introduction Large information syste...
