Abstract

Graphical User Interfaces heavily rely on menus to access application functionalities. Therefore designing properly menus poses relevant usability issues to face. Indeed, trading off between semantic preferences and usability makes this task not so easy to be performed. Meta-heuristics represent a promising approach in assisting designers to specify menu layouts. In this paper, we propose a preliminary experience in adopting Genetic Programming as a natural means for evolving a menu hierarchy towards optimal structure.
