W3C Task Meta-model Limitations in Post-WIMP Applications

Abstract

New technologies are giving rise to new interaction paradigms that go beyond the classic WIMP (Window, Icon, Menu and Pointing) interfaces. At the same time, theses new interfaces, called Post-WIMP need the modeling languages to be adapted in order to be suitable for a development process. In this paper, the W3C Task Meta-model is analyzed within a Post-WIMP system modeling and a new Task meta-model, based on CSRML, is proposed to tackle the shortcomings.
