Abstract
In this paper we present a XML-based interface customization model used in the construction of digital museum. Traditional component developing methods pay more attention to the function implementation. Meanwhile the interface and function realization are generally written together. In contrast the system interface is hard to implement and bald. Indeed, users usually want to customize Web interface as they like, namely interface customization. That is they want to realize the Web interface customized and dynamically. The presented model in this paper can achieve the separation of interface and function. The system architecture is composed of three layers, which are presentation layer, operation layer and data layer. In our model we employ XML as the main technology for the system construction. And the configuration process is also depicted in the paper. At the end of the paper, we give some applications of this model: the construction of the Web interfaces of the Archaeological Digital Museum of Shandong University and the Ancient Digital Technologies Museum.
