Abstract

Software applications are designed with a concrete purpose in mind, specified by business owners basing on the individual requirements. The user-system interaction is specified in the analysis phase. This phase specifies inputs, outputs, interaction etc. These elements could be specified separately based on the target platform. The designers know that the mobile clients could have a different application flow than desktop clients. However, this is not a rule and designers often times do not think about the user context nor do they consider the application context. This implies that outputs, inputs and interactions do not change automatically during the software life cycle. In this paper we present techniques that are able to determine whether the user, which is in a particular context, should be required to spend his/her time to fill in fields that are not needed for accomplishing a specific business task. Moreover, these techniques are able to determine whether the fields should display or are not necessary, as well as how the system might interact with the user. Finally, we present a computational architecture that is able to make these types of determinations.
