Dynamic generation of flexible User Interface for remote control

Abstract

Remote control over the internet is generating significant research interest, of which a major research challenge is the generation of Web User Interface (WUI) according to individual user's specific requirements, for example different users have an interest in monitoring and controlling different machines. Furthermore, the same user may also be interested in different machines in different sessions. This paper proposes an approach for generating dynamic web navigation pages based on the user's requirements and the knowledge of the machines required to be controlled using ontology and message-driven technologies. The dynamically generated pages allow the user to monitor the status of the machines and to issue commands.
