To develop trustworthy distributed systems, verification techniques and formal methods, including lightweight and practical approaches, have been employed to certify the design or implementation of security protocols. Lightweight formal…

Natural language (NL) toolkits enable visualization developers, who may not have a background in natural language processing (NLP), to create natural language interfaces (NLIs) for end-users to flexibly specify and interact with…

GUI design is an integral part of software development. The process of designing a mobile application typically starts with the ideation and inspiration search from existing designs. However, existing information-retrieval based, and…

Several approaches have been presented, which aim to extract models from natural language specifications. These approaches have inherent weaknesses for they assume an initial problem understanding that is perfect, and they leave no room for…

We report on our experiences in an e-government project for supporting the automatic generation of E-forms for services provided by local governments. The approach requires the integration of both the model-based user interface design…

In the field of affective computing, where research continually advances at a rapid pace, the demand for user-friendly tools has become increasingly apparent. In this paper, we present the AffectToolbox, a novel software system that aims to…

Multiple Choice Questions or MCQs are very important for e-learning. Many MCQ Tools allow us to generate MCQs very easily. However, in most of the cases they are not portable. That means MCQs generated for one system cannot be used for…

Academic research generates diverse data sources, and as researchers increasingly use machine learning to assist research tasks, a crucial question arises: Can we build a unified data interface to support the development of machine learning…

Studying facial expressions is a notoriously difficult endeavor. Recent advances in the field of affective computing have yielded impressive progress in automatically detecting facial expressions from pictures and videos. However, much of…

Purpose: As interest in CEST-MRI grows, particularly in the preclinical setting, the necessity for standardized and easy-to-use acquisition and data analysis pipelines has become apparent. While vendors have increasingly introduced support…

Social workers need visual tools to collect information about their client's life situation, so that they can reflect it together and choose tailored interventions. easyNWK and easyBiograph are two visual tools for the client's social…

The emergence of Generative AI is catalyzing a paradigm shift in user interfaces from command-based to intent-based outcome specification. In this paper, we explore abstract-to-detailed task transitions in the context of frontend code…

An application's user documentation, also referred to as the user manual, is one of the core elements required in application distribution. While there exist many tools to aid an application's developer in creating and maintaining…
