Front-end design of mobile applications is a complex and multidisciplinary task, where many perspectives intersect and the user experience must be perfectly tailored to the application objectives. However, development of mobile user interactions is still largely a manual task, which yields to high risks of errors, inconsistencies and inefficiencies. The contribution of the AutoMobile research … Continue reading Mobile app development – Extensions for IFML modelling language, tool and code generator presented at MobiWIS

Universal Modeling Languages vs. Meta-languages: the case of Wolfram Language
A nice discussion has been triggered by Jean Bézivin yesterday on Twitter, starting from this video that gives an introduction to the Wolfram Language: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P9HqHVPeik//www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/_P9HqHVPeik?version=3&hl=en_US Wolfram Language introduces itself as a knowledge-based programming language. I think this is a very interesting and powerful approach. However, the online discussion among us modeling people focused on understanding … Continue reading Universal Modeling Languages vs. Meta-languages: the case of Wolfram Language
Sneak peek at IFML 1.0 (the Interaction Flow Modeling Language) by the OMG
IFML 1.0 is almost here! As you may know by now, the OMG standard Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) is designed for expressing the content, user interaction and control behaviour of the front-end (aka view) of software applications. And if you don't know anything about IFML, you can just visit www.ifml.org or have a look at … Continue reading Sneak peek at IFML 1.0 (the Interaction Flow Modeling Language) by the OMG
Gems on MDE and UML by Jean Bézivin (and others)
I'd like to share and write down in a more permanent way some thoughts and messages I recollected from yesterday's twitter interactions with Jean Bézivin on Model Driven Engineering (MDE) and UML.I'm sure future generations will appreciate my writeup of these small, hidden gems that otherwise would have gone lost in the Twitter flurry 🙂 . … Continue reading Gems on MDE and UML by Jean Bézivin (and others)
IFML is now adopted and published by OMG, Wikipedia, and YouTube
Along with the continuing consolidation process of the Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) within OMG, we are now starting our effort of documenting and disseminating IFML.The three most recent resources I wish to point at are:Official publishing of IFML in the OMG specification catalogA new Wikipedia page on the languageA new demonstration video on the … Continue reading IFML is now adopted and published by OMG, Wikipedia, and YouTube
Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) adopted as a standard by OMG
It's with great pleasure and also some pride that I'm announcing that the Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) has been adopted as a standard by OMG during the technical meeting held in Reston, VA this week.This is an important result we have been pursuing for more than two years now (and ultimately have its roots … Continue reading Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) adopted as a standard by OMG
IFML on its way towards OMG standardization
The Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) is now one step closer to standardization by Object Management Group (OMG). On February 18 the revised version of the IFML specification has been submitted to OMG by a consortium lead by WebRatio and comprising also Fujitsu, Model Driven Solutions, Softeam, and Thales.The new submission has improved a lot … Continue reading IFML on its way towards OMG standardization
