In the development of interactive systems, the graphical User Interface (UI) design is very important. But the now existing software engineering technology lacks the direct support for UI design description, and this has limited the efficiency and quality of graphical UI development.In recent years, In order to improve the efficiency and quality of graphical UI development, a lot of model-based user interface development environments appeared, These models belong to either conceptual model or declarative model. Either concept model or declarative model has merits and shortcomings. The conceptual model directly describes the composition of UIs, but it can't support the whole process of UI development; while declarative models do support the whole process, but the modeling is too complex and their incorporation is very difficult.The FMP UI model studied in our research combines the merits of the conceptual model and the declarative model. The model aims at the implementation of graphical UI systems and their automatic code generation. It supports the architecture design of applications. The model is composed of function model, internal model, and the template-based presentation model. The presentation model breaks the restriction of the existing presentation models that lack the consideration of relationships of interface object. Thus, the concept of design patterns of UI is presented.The models mentioned above are mainly based on traditional software. Aimed at the special request of the web environment for user interface model, Many methods or tools, such as MODFM, AutoWeb and Rational XDE were brought forward. Though they have realized the auto-generation of code partly to some degree, they don't support enough for the construction of Web interface models.As the FMP model is based on traditional desktop software, without supporting the modeling of web application user interface. And there are not many web...
