“…The next section will investigate to what extent this tool supporting multifidelity is appreciated by end users and designers. Section 5 will then address the last criteria: it will exemplify how the tool could be used for other types of UI than merely web pages (like in DENIM [14]), GUIs (like in Prototyper [16] or in SketchiXML [8]). …”

Abstract. Multi-fidelity prototyping combines within a single user interface prototype several elements whose representations are reproduced with different levels of fidelity with respect to the final user interface: no fidelity at all, low fidelity, medium fidelity, and high fidelity. In order to effectively and efficiently support multi-fidelity, an original set of techniques is defined and discussed: multiple representation manipulation by sketching and gesture recognition, smooth transition between any representation at any time, prototype reusability, multi-platform support, and multiple user interface prototyping facilities. The full implementation of these techniques in prototyping software provides designers and developers with a unique environment for exploring multiple designs with unprecedented support for quickly designing interfaces from scratch or from previously existing design templates. An experimental study reveals that the multiple representation manipulation together with smooth transition represents a valuable advantage for naturally designing user interfaces. The prototyping software supports several aspects involved in the user interface development life cycle and is convenient for non-WIMP user interfaces.

“…one fidelity level at a time. But due to the variety of actors' inputs, several levels of fidelities could be combined together, thus leading to the concept of mixed-fidelity, such as in ProtoMixer [22]. Beyond mixed-fidelity, we introduce multi-fidelity [10] that is reached when UI requirements simultaneously involve elements belonging to different levels of fidelity, but only one level of fidelity is acted upon at a time, thus assuming that a transition is always possible between elements of different fidelity.…”

“…Software practitioners and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) specialists today concur that structured approaches are required to design, specify, and verify interactive systems [2,6,9,11,22] so as to obtain a high usability of their User Interface (UI) [19,21]. The design, the specification, and the verification of user-friendly and taskadequate UIs have become a success critical factor in many domains of activity.…”

Abstract. Specifying user interfaces consists in a fundamental activity in the user interface development life cycle as it informs the subsequent steps. Good quality specifications could lead to a user interface that satisfies the user's needs. The user interface development life cycle typically involves multiple actors possessing all their own particular inputs of user interface artifacts expressed with their own formats, thus posing new constraints for integrating them into comprehensive and consistent specifications of a future user interface. This paper introduces a design technique where these actors can introduce their artifacts by sketching them in their respective input format so as to integrate them into one or multiple output formats. Each artifact can be introduced in a particular level of fidelity (ranging from low to high) and switched to an adjacent level of fidelity after appropriate refining. Refined artifacts are then captured in appropriate models stored in a model repository. In this way, coevolutionary design of user interfaces is introduced, defined, and supported by a collaborative design tool allowing multiple inputs and multiple outputs. This design paradigm is exemplified on a case study and has been tested in an empirical study revealing how designers appreciate it.Keywords.
