Building a user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI) with languages like C++ or Java is difficult and time-consuming, because such languages demand specifying many details about the geometric data of layout, the sequence in which items are displaye...
Constraint solver benchmark, in Java; about 1000 lines of code. DeltaBlue first implemented by John Maloney at University of Washington, translated to many languages: C, C++, Java; Smalltalk. [Sun Microsystems Labs]
The ad hoc manner in which direct manipulation interfaces have been designed and implemented restricts the types of interactive controls. This dissertation presents a new approach for a systematic method to implement flexible, combinable interactive c...
Constraints can specify desired layout of web documents, and behavior of embedded applets: 2 system architectures where author and viewer can make layout constraints, needed and optional. Final appearance of page comes from negotiation between author ...
Project to develop and explore using advanced constraint methods to make user interface software. Constraints as a general computational technique allow declaring a set of relationships between entities. A constraint satisfaction system is employed to...
ResearchIndex: In the last 20 years, many algorithms and heuristics were developed to find solutions in constraint networks. Their number increased so much that it quickly became vital to compare performance to propose a small number of good methods.
