This paper is concerned with initial-boundary-value problems (IBVPs) for a class of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations posed either on a half line $\mathbb{R}^+$ or on a bounded interval $(0, L)$ with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions. For any $s$ with $0\leq s \frac12$, compatibility between the initial and boundary conditions is also needed.) Global well-posedness is also discussed when $s \ge 1$. From the point of view of the well-posedness theory, the results obtained reveal a significant difference between the IBVP posed on $\mathbb{R}^+$ and the IBVP posed on $(0,L)$. The former is reminiscent of the theory for the pure initial-value problem (IVP) for these Schr\"odinger equations posed on the whole line $\mathbb{R}$ while the theory on a bounded interval looks more like that othe pure IVP posed on a periodic domain. In particular, the regularity demanded of the boundary data for the IBVP on $\mathbb{R}^+$ is consistent with the temporal trace results that obtain for solutions of the pure IVP on $\mathbb{R}$, while the slightly higher regularity of boundary data for the IBVP on $(0, L)$ resembles what is found for temporal traces of spatially periodic solutions.
