Web modeling

Home | Up

Web modeling (aka model-driven Web development) is a branch of Web engineering which addresses the specific issues related to design and development of large-scale Web applications. In particular, it focuses on the design notations and visual languages that can be used for the realization of robust, well-structured, usable and maintainable Web applications. Designing a data-intensive Web site amounts to specifying its characteristics in terms of various orthogonal abstractions. The main orthogonal models that are involved in complex Web application design are: data structure, content composition, navigation paths, and presentation model.

Several languages and notations have been devised for Web application modeling. Among them, we can cite:

• HDM - W2000
• RMM
• OOHDM
• ARANEUS
• STRUDEL
• TIRAMISU
• WebML
• Hera
• UML Web Application Extension
• UML-based Web Engineering (UWE)
• ACE
• WebArchitect
• OO-H
