                         applications are deployed on the Web. In general, most of these 
                         applications have rich and complex interfaces, which are bound to 
                         present usability problems. However, for modern Web applications, 
                         usually developed in Internet time , regular approaches for the 
                         evaluation of usability, based on laboratory tests, tend not to be 
                         appropriate, as they demand an amount of effort and time that 
                         developers are not willing to spend. In order to tackle this 
                         problem, we developed USABILICS, a system targeted for the 
                         automatic remote evaluation of usability based on an interface 
                         model. The proposed model allows the definition of tasks using a 
                         simple and intuitive approach, which can be applied to large and 
                         dynamic Web applications. In this paper, we detail this approach, 
                         presenting the tool that supports the definition of tasks. 
                         Moreover, we show that our approach is effective towards 
                         supporting the definition of complex tasks in a myriad of modern 
                         Web applications..",
