Investigating the rendering capability of embedded devices for graphical-user-interfaces in mobile machines

This paper focuses on the alignment of Graphical-User-Interface (GUI) applications and embedded devices. The main contribution is a benchmark approach that enables measuring and comparing the GUI rendering capability of embedded devices and provides a performance-oriented GUI design recommendation for an embedded device. The benchmark is tailored to common GUI applications and resource-limited devices, which are usually mounted in mobile machines. GUI applications can only be rendered smoothly if these devices have sufficient performance. A general benchmark concept is described and modeled in Unified Modeling Language (UML) at first, followed by a prototypical implementation and evaluation. It is demonstrated that the benchmark approach is applicable to GUI applications with different levels of complexity as well as embedded devices of different performance classes.     «
