Abstract

This work presents some details of the development of the user interface subsystem for a reactive system where structured methods have been used. The need to monitor the system and the user interaction when anomalous situations occur are integrated within the same essential model that expreses the specified system behaviour. Also, the design makes a clear distinction between the application behaviour and the user dialogue portions that are closely related to the system. Some details such as the design of a task that maps the user interface dialog with the application semantics are also presented.
