A Model and an XSL Framework for Analyzing the Quality of WebML Conceptual Schemas

چکیده
Web conceptual models certainly represent a successful approach to the design of complex Web applications. Wrong uses of conceptual models may however introduce problems, which void the numerous advantages deriving from their exploitation in Web applications design. In this paper, we present a quality model for WebML, an XML-based Web conceptual model having a graphical notation. We also introduce an XSLbased framework able to automatically verify a set of quality attributes identified for WebML conceptual schemas. Our quality framework was born as a WebML-specific framework, but it is flexible enough to be applied to other Web conceptual models based on an XML specification.

متن کاملOn Using a Semiotic Quality Framework to Evaluate the Quality of Conceptual Database Schemas
In this paper, we introduce a semiotics-based framework for evaluating the quality of conceptual schemas of databases. We created it based on an existing semiotics-based framework that has been used to evaluate other types of software entities. We propose two measures for evaluating the perceived semantic quality of conceptual schemas. The measures consider correspondence between conceptual dat...
