Resumo: | |||||||||||||
Applications that are extensible by end-users represent a
proposal to cope with the issue that it
is improbable that a software will attend every specific
need of each different user within a
domain. One of the research areas approaching extensible
applications is End-User
Programming (EUP).
EUP empirical investigations evidence the existence of
collaborative practices related to the
process of application extension. In these practices,
people communicate with each other with
various purposes: to help themselves deal with their
problems regarding computing, to share
ready-made extensions or to build extensions together. Our
work complements these
investigations by offering a deep and theoretically
motivated treatment of the communication
phenomena related to the observed collaborative practices.
Based on Semiotics theory and
Semiotic Engineering, we propose a model of these
phenomena, describing its structure and
behavior thus supporting a better understanding of the
issues related to them. According to the
model, we designed a computable language for the
representation of extensions in association
with corresponding communicative discourse.
