Management of Interface Design in HUMANOID.Luo, P.; Szekely, P.; and Neches, R.1993.In Proceedings of ACM INTERCHI'93 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 107--114. BibtexAbstract:
Today's interface design tools either force designers to handle a tremendous number of design details, or limit their control over design decisions. Neither of these approaches taps the true strengths of either human designers or computers in the design process. This paper presents a human-computer collaborative system that uses a model-based approach for interface design to help designers search the design space effectively and construct executable specifications of application user interfaces. This human-in-the-loop environment focuses human designers on decision making, and utilizes the bookkeeping capabilities of computers for regular and tedious tasks. We describe (a) the underlying modeling technique and an execution environment that allows even incompletely-specified designs to be executed for evaluation and testing purposes, and (b) a tool that decomposes high-level design goals into the necessary implementation steps, and helps designers manage the myriad of details that arise during design.

Modular implementation of presentations.Szekely, P.; Carroll, J. M.; and Tanner, P. P.1987.SIGCHI Bull., 18(4):235--240. BibtexAbstract:
The presentation of an application program specifies how the data and operations provided by an application are presented to users. Most traditional techniques for implementing presentations lead to unstructured, unmodular implementations that are hard to construct and change. We present a model of presentation that identifies the dependencies between the presentation and functionality portions of an application. Based on this model, we show how several implementation techniques can be used to construct presentations in a modular way.

Model-based interface development is a new paradigm for developing interfaces that offers solutions to the main shortcomings of current tools. This paradigm is based on constructing a declarative description of how an interface should look and behave (model), and using the description to control the execution of an interface. This paper briefly summarizes the main shortcomings of interface development tools used today, discusses the main elements of the model-based approach, and closes with a discussion of the state of the art and the challenges that lie ahead.

Integrating pointer variables into one-way constraint models.Zanden, B. V.; Myers, B. A.; Giuse, D.; and Szekely, P.1994.ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 1(2):161--213, June. BibtexAbstract:
Pointer variables have long been considered useful for constructing and manipulating data structures in traditional programming languages. This article discusses how pointer variables can be integrated into one-way constraint models and indicates how these constraints can be usefully employed in user interfaces. Pointer variables allow constraints to model a wide array of dynamic application behavior, simplify the implementation of structured objects and demonstrational systems, and improve the storage and efficiency of constraint-based applications. This article presents two incremental algorithms --- one lazy and one eager --- for solving constraints with pointer variables. Both algorithms are capable of handling (1) arbitrary systems of one-way constraints, including constraints that involve cycles, and (2) editing models that allow multiple changes between calls to the constraint solver. These algorithms are fault tolerant in that they can handle and recover gracefully from formulas that crash due to programmer error. Constraints that use pointer variables have been implemented in a comprehensive user interface toolkit, Garnet, and our experience with applications written in Garnet have proven the usefulness of pointer variable constraints. Many large-scale applications have been implemented using these constraints.

Integrated user support environments are individual and cooperative-work systems which allow their users to perform a large quantity of their daily work on-line, and which do so by providing access to a comprehensive set of tools that interact smoothly with each other and present a uniform interface to the users. The INtegrated User-Support Environments (IN-USE) Group is developing a framework for facilitating construction of such systems. The framework is oriented toward assisting users who must timeshare between multiple, highly information-intensive data analysis and problem solving tasks. Our fundamental goals are to help developers quickly assemble support environments that offer reasonable default appearance and behavior, and to make it easy to then customize those environments as needed.

MAAN: a multi-attribute addressable network for grid information services.Cai, M.; Frank, M.; Chen, J.; and Szekely, P.2003.184 - 191, nov. BibtexAbstract:
Recent structured peer-to-peer (P2P) systems such as distributed hash tables (DHTs) offer scalable key-based lookup for distributed resources. However, they cannot be simply applied to grid information services because grid resources need to be registered and searched using multiple attributes. We propose a multiattribute addressable network (MAAN) which extends chord to support multiattribute and range queries. MAAN addresses range queries by mapping attribute values to the chord identifier space via uniform locality preserving hashing. It uses an iterative or single attribute dominated query routing algorithm to resolve multiattribute based queries. Each node in MAAN only has O(logN) neighbors for N nodes. The number of routing hops to resolve a multiattribute range query is O(logN+N times;smin), where smin is the minimum range selectivity on all attributes. When smin= #949;, it is logarithmic to the number of nodes, which is scalable to a large number of nodes and attributes. We also measured the performance of our MAAN implementation and the experimental results are consistent with our theoretical analysis.
Interfaces for Understanding Multi-Agent Behavior.Szekely, P.; Rogers; Milo, C.; and Frank, M.2001.In Proceedings of the 2001 International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces, 161--166. BibtexAbstract:
Synchronized punch-card displays are an interface technique to visualize tens of thousands of variables by encoding their values as color chips in a rectangular array. Our technique ties multiple such displays to a timeline of events enabling the punch-card displays to show animations of the behavior of complex systems. Punch-card displays not only make it easy to understand the high-level behavior of systems, but also enable users to quickly focus on individual variables and on fine-grained time intervals. This paper describes synchronized punch-card displays and shows how this technique is extremely powerful for understanding the behavior of complex multi-agent systems.

Building Data Integration Queries by Demonstration.Tuchinda, R.; Szekely, P.; and Knoblock, C. A.2008.February06. BibtexAbstract:
The magnitude of data available on the web prompts the need for an easy to use query interface that enables users to integrate data from multiple web sources in an intelligent fashion. Past work in the area of databases has resulted in different query interface systems that simplify query formulation. While these approaches reduce the user's effort to compose queries, the user is still required to pick data sources to use and the interaction is not guaranteed to yield a non-empty result set. We introduce a novel approach that exploits the structure of the relational data source(s) to formulate a set of constraints. These constraints are used in conjunction with partial plans to produce an intelligent query interface that (a) does not require the user to know details about data sources or existing values (b) suggests valid inputs to the user (c) creates consistent queries that always return values.
