This library is written for service manager and GUI developer to support them in building graphical interfaces. Especially to save time investigating web interfaces and their numerous implementations. The Library is also written to point out usability issues on a detailed level at an early stage.

Building web applications that serve scientific needs have specific demands on graphical user interfaces. Such interfaces are not limited to common interface techniques used in commercial applications. The pattern library aims at providing development activities with a growing set of interface elements called patterns. These pattern are bound to the following preliminaries:

  • documented concerning the scenario they aim for
  • described how they work and what components are applied
  • considered what varieties can evolve
  • discussed in terms of usability pros and cons
