Pedro is an application that creates data entry forms based on a data model written in a particular style of XML Schema. Users can enter data through the forms to create data files that conform to the schema. They can use controlled vocabularies to mark-up text fields and have the application perform basic validation on field data. When they feel they have finished writing a data file, Pedro can tell them if they have left out any required records.
Google Gears (BETA) is an open source browser extension that enables web applications to provide offline functionality using the following JavaScript APIs:
Store and serve application resources locally
Store data locally in a fully-searchable relational database
Run asynchronous Javascript to improve application responsiveness
Overview
Vexi is a platform for creating and publishing Graphical User Interfaces that can be used over the Internet or an intranet. It features a very simple and powerful syntax based on xml and javascript, a set of complete, extensible, themable widgets, and a sandbox-like security model to protect users.
Why Vexi?
Vexi is designed to overcome the flaws of other Internet application platform implementations.
Vexi applications are written in a combination of XML and JavaScript. The XML layout makes UI structure simple to understand, and the JavaScript provides a powerful way of manipulating a UI to make it dynamic. Do not confuse JavaScript with the HTML DOM - the latter gives JavaScript a bad name because of it’s over complicated nature. JavaScript is very easy to understand and work with. And whilst XML is a far reaching standard, the context in which it is put into practise with Vexi makes it very easy to understand and work with.
The goal of this project is to provide a configurable and customizable production-quality Java look and feel library for Swing applications. This Java look and feel is available for JDK 5.0+ only.
A standards-based, data-driven Eclipse plug-in that generates functional forms with XForms mark-up embedded within an XHTML document from a XML data instance or a WSDL document.
User Interface Research (UIR) is a research group in the Information Sciences & Technology Lab at PARC. Our charter is to develop new techniques for people to interact with large information environments. On the one hand, we have computer scientists working on new user interface paradigms; on the other hand, we have cognitive scientists working on the technical analysis of human behavior in information environments.
