Towards agile model-driven web engineering
Material type:
ArticleDescription: 1 archivo (830,0 kB)Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: The increasing growth of the Web field has promoted the develop- ment of a plethora of Model-Driven Web Engineering (MDWE) approaches. These methodologies share a top-down approach: they start by modeling appli- cation content, then they define a navigational schema, and finally refine the latter to obtain presentation and rich behavior specifications. Such approach makes it difficult to acquire quick feedback from customers. Conversely, agile methods follow a non-structured, implementation-centered process building software prototypes to get immediate feedback. In this work we propose an agile approach to MDWE methodologies (called Mockup-Driven Development, or MockupDD) by inverting the development process: we start from user inter- face mockups that facilitate the generation of software prototypes and models, then we enrich them and apply heuristics in order to obtain software specifica- tions at different abstraction levels. As a result, we get an agile prototype-based iterative process, with advantages of a MDWE one.
