Abstract

This paper reports two projects, both of which applied the GUIDE structured method for developing user interfaces during the development of a data-intensive system. One project developed a catalogue of learning opportunities for a manufacturing plant´s Learning Centre. The other project developed a library of multimedia resources to support the distributed authoring of training material. A comparison of these projects reveals some common characteristics of the application of such methods to data intensive systems in general
