摘要

终端用户编程,特别是触发操作编程(TAP),是一种流行的方法,可以让用户表达他们对智能设备和云服务如何交互的意图。不幸的是,用户有时很难通过TAP正确地表达他们的愿望。本文介绍了AutoTap,一个允许新手用户轻松指定设备和服务所需属性的系统。AutoTap将这些属性转换为线性时序逻辑(LTL),然后自动从零开始合成满足属性的TAP规则,并修复现有的TAP规则。我们在对用户希望表达的属性进行研究的基础上设计了AutoTap。通过第二项用户研究,我们发现新手用户在使用AutoTap表达期望行为时比使用TAP规则犯的错误要少得多。我们的实验表明,AutoTap是一个简单而有效的选择,表达终端用户编程。

AutoTap: Synthesizing and Repairing Trigger-Action Programs Using LTL Properties
End-user programming, particularly trigger-action programming (TAP), is a popular method of letting users express their intent for how smart devices and cloud services interact. Unfortunately, sometimes it can be challenging for users to correctly express their desires through TAP. This paper presents AutoTap, a system that lets novice users easily specify desired properties for devices and services. AutoTap translates these properties to linear temporal logic (LTL) and both automatically synthesizes property-satisfying TAP rules from scratch and repairs existing TAP rules. We designed AutoTap based on a user study about properties users wish to express. Through a second user study, we show that novice users made significantly fewer mistakes when expressing desired behaviors using AutoTap than using TAP rules. Our experiments show that AutoTap is a simple and effective option for expressive end-user programming.
