Part 1: The International Cross Domain Conference (CD-ARES 2016)International audienceDistributed Market Spaces (DMS), refer to an exchange environment in emerging Internet of Everything, that supports users in making transactions of complex products; a novel type of products made up of different products and/or services that can be customized to better fit the individual context of the user. In order to express their demand for a particular complex product in a way that is interpretable by the DMS, users need flexible User Interfaces (UIs) that allow context-focused data collection related to the complexity of the user’s demand. This paper proposes a concept for generic UIs that enables users to compose their own UIs for requesting complex products, by combining existing UI descriptions for different parts of the particular complex product, as well as to share and improve UI descriptions among other users within the markets

Part 1: Semantic Concepts and Open DataInternational audienceThe paper presents a data-centric, model driven approach for the automatic generation of user interfaces (UIs) for dialog-based applications using ontological descriptions. It focuses on Interview Applications, a common pattern e.g. for self-service applications in EIS. Existing approaches for the automatic UI generation usually rely on proprietary, UI-specific description models, designed and developed manually for the application in focus. The manual creation of the artefacts leads to a gap in the automated development, i.e. for dialog-based application UIs, where the structure and behavior is driven by the processed data. Furthermore, the UI specific nature of the artefacts impedes their (re-)use in different contexts. The presented approach is a shift away from a UI-specific towards a data-centric method of modelling dialog-based applications, bridging this gap. Application-Ontologies are used as description means, which leads to reusable, sharable model artifacts, applicable to different contexts of use
