Web modeling
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.
Models
Designing a data-intensive Website amounts to specifying its characteristics in terms of various orthogonal abstractions. The main 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 are:
- RMM
- OOHDM
- ARANEUS
- STRUDEL
- TIRAMISU
- HDM — W2000
- the Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML), adopted by the Object Management Group (OMG) in March 2013
- WebML
- Hera
- UML Web Application Extension
- UML-based Web Engineering (UWE)
- ACE
- WebArchitect
- OO-H
One of the main discussion venues for this discipline is the Model-Driven Web Engineering Workshop (MDWE) held yearly in conjunction with the International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE)[1] conference.
