WEB INTERACTION DESIGN: FROM NAVIGATION OBJECTS TO USER INTERFACE ELEMENTS PRESENTATION

Web Information System (WIS) should provide information with complex and specific details throughout its domain structure. It has significant information compositions such as its domain processes, users’ interactions, content structures, navigation access elements, and user interface presentation. Therefore, special attention should be placed on how interaction design took place in the overall design process when developing a WIS. In this paper, we will concentrate our discussions on two interaction design perspectives – navigation information and user interface presentation. It has been shown that specific modeling elements are important and required to facilitate designers in organizing and integrating specific information at high level views to produce expressive user interface presentation for each WIS page. We will describe in detail how our approach can be used to map navigation information into user interface presentation throughout the design models, in order to highlight the internal strengths of our approach.
