Audience-driven Web Design

چکیده
Today Web-related software development seems to be faced with a crisis not unlike the one that occurred a generation ago when in the 70s computer hardware experienced an order of magnitude increase in computational power. While this made possible the implementation of a new class of applications larger both in size and complexity, the methods for software development available at that time were not able to scale up to such large projects. The "software crisis" was a fact with its legendary stories of delays, unreliability, maintenance bottlenecks and costs.

Chapter # WSDM : WEB SEMANTICS DESIGN METHOD
In this chapter we describe WSDM, an audience-driven Web design method. WSDM was one of the first Web design methods and different from the other methods because of its audience-driven approach. Now the method is adapted to the use of Semantic Web technology and support the generation of semantically annotated web sites and web applications.
متن کاملStructuring Web Sites Using Audience Class Hierarchies
WSDM is an audience driven design method for web sites. By explicitly starting from the requirements of the web sites audience (the users or visitors), WSDM avoids problems caused by poor underlying design, or by a too data or organization driven view. This paper presents how the main structure of a web site can be derived from structuring the visitors of the web site into one or more so-called...
متن کاملUsing ORM to Model Web Systems
In this paper, we describe how ORM is extended, and combined with Concurrent Task Trees (CTT) to model the content as well as the functionality of a web system in the web design method WSDM. As WSDM uses an audience driven design approach, the use of ORM is somewhat different from its use for data modeling in the context of databases. We discuss the differences. We also discuss the benefits of ...
متن کاملConceptual View Integration for Audience Driven Web Design
In an audience driven approach to website design, the requirements of the different audiences are modeled as separated tiny conceptual schemas comparable to views. We present a new approach to integrate these conceptual views. The preparation for the integration is already done during the design phase itself. Semantic information about the concepts used during conceptual modeling is stored in a...
متن کاملAutomatic Runtime Validation and Correction of the Navigational Design of Web Sites
Essential to an audience driven website design philosophy is the organization of information and functionality according to the requirements of the different audience classes. However, at design time, it is often difficult to correctly assess the different needs and requirements of the different prospective users of a website. This may result in a non-optimal navigation structure, which will de...
متن کاملSolving Semantic Conflicts in Audience Driven Web Design
In an audience driven approach to website design, the requirements of the different audiences are modeled as separated tiny conceptual schemas comparable to views. This has several advantages, but until now it had the disadvantage that it was necessary to integrate the different schemas derived later on. In this paper we present an approach that overcomes this disadvantage. This is done by link...
