Client-Server Database Architectures for the Web

We present various client-server database architectures in which components of a database system execute on the Web client. The Web components described include a general object browser, cooperative client-server caches, a personal Web assistant and developer tools for database design and prototyping. All of these have been implemented as part of the OMS database development suite. Additionally...

Software Issues in Characterizing Web Server Logs

Mismatch Avoidance in Web Services Software Architectures

Architectural mismatches are a recognized obstacle to successful software reuse. An architectural mismatch occurs when two or more software components are connected to form a system and those components make differing and incompatible assumptions about their interactions or the environment in which they exist. Mismatch detection and avoidance has been previously discussed in existing literature...

Using MDA in Web Software Architectures

The new challenges posed by the Internet market have increased the need for Web Applications that require more development efforts and guarantee a higher quality level. In order to contribute to this goal, in this position paper we present a new proposal called WebSA which proposes the inclusion of a software architecture models to complement the specification of Web Applications. This strategy...

Benchmarking Web Server Architectures: A Simulation Study on Micro Performance

As Internet expands, the number of application servers, especially Web servers, has been increasing exponentially. To improve the performance of Web servers, researchers have paid attention to and studied the Web server’s macro-performance, namely, the response time and throughput, which can be perceived by end users directly. In this paper, we have produced a micro benchmark, ServBench, by stu...
