| Model-driven Development of Context-Aware Web Applications, ACM TOIT 2007 :. |
| Context-aware, multi-channel Web applications are more and more gaining consensus among both
content providers and consumers, but very few proposals exist for their conceptual modeling.
This paper illustrates a conceptual framework that provides modeling facilities for context-aware,
multi-channel Web applications; it also shows how high-level modeling constructs can drive the
application development process through automatic code generation. Our work stresses the im-
portance of user-independent, context-triggered adaptation actions, in which the context plays
the role of a “first class” actor, operating independently from users on the same hypertext the
users navigate. Modeling concepts are based on WebML (Web Modeling Language), an already
established conceptual model for data-intensive Web applications, which is also accompanied by
a development method and a CASE tool. However, given their general validity, the concepts of
this paper shape up a complete framework that can be adopted independently from the chosen
model, method, and tool. |
