Study And Implementation Of Automatic Generation Of Metadata-based Human/Computer Interface

Considering the current situation of application software in the post industry of China, in this thesis, a study for automatically generating client-side human/computer interfaces and workflows in the application software has been carried out by leveraging the meta-data theory, component technology and DSSA technology. To meet the rapid response requirement of the post industry for businesses, an automatic generation mechanism for human/computer interfaces and workflows, which is based on the meta-data technology, has been proposed. Based on the investigation and exploration of the relevant implementation methods, a detailed implementation has been made in this research.Based on the proposed automatic generation mechanism for human/computer interfaces and workflows, through defining the key element in human/computer interfaces and workflows as a describable resource, in this research, the meta-data technology has been employed to describe the resource and a core program has been designed and developed for the detailed implementation. The major advantage of the work is that it can overcome the low-efficiency and heavy workload in developing the traditional client-side software, and provide a better support for the second-development of the system.In the final part of the thesis, the achievement made in the practical project for human/computer interfaces and workflows is elaborated; the potential improvement and further works are discussed.
