ABSTRACT
The AUTOSPEC system is an automatic motor specification software system that primarily serves to non-interactively produce bill of materials from sales orders. At the core, the system applies Expert System and coordinated Relational Database technology to effect an object-oriented implementation. Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools supporting object-oriented analysis (OOA) and an object-oriented design (OOD) approach were used to provide a smooth transition of the software design effort into production at motor manufacturing plants. The powerful mechanisms of class inheritance, and forward chaining, as well as graphical program construction provided by the ProKappa Knowledge Base System are employed. Motif Graphical User Interface (GUI) development was carried out using UIM/X, a WYSIWYG screen development tool. The ORACLE Database Management System was used to provide data independence necessary for engineering system interfacing.

A Graphical Specification System for User-Interface Design
An environment for creating user interfaces for embedded systems, called the graphical specification system (GSS), is presented. GSS combines graphical and minimal low-level textual specification with a prototyping capability for rapid user-interface ...
Developing usable web interfaces with the aid of automatic verification of their formal specification
The development of interactive visual applications is a complex work, usually performed with the help of advanced visual programming environments. Although a number of tools are available to support designers and developers in the specification of a GUI'...
