| Abstract | Web-based applications are by far the most universally accessible. These applications evolved from simple document retrieval systems to online booking systems, online shopping malls, e- commerce websites, and collaborative systems, to name just few examples. Widely accepted software and networking standards allow for effective implementation of these applications. However, these standards do not help much with making the interface of these applications user friendly and easy to manage. In other words, there are no or little means to ensure that the user interface provides high quality in use for all users. We address this problem by introducing an architectural model for user interfaces of web -based applications. The model reflects both the physical partitioning of the application as well as the placement of user interface components. The presented model is a synthesis of two groups of models. The first group contains multi-tier architecture models currently used in the design of web-based applications. The other group of models consists of traditional models developed by the HCI community. Our model differentiates between local and remote communication lines. It can be further customized to fit concrete examples of web-based application types. |
