Web Engineering

2008

Web-based systems and applications now deliver a complex array of functionality to a large number of diverse groups of users. As our dependence and reliance on the Web has increased dramatically over the years, their performance, reliability and quality have become paramount importance. As a result, the development of Web applications has become more complex and challenging than most of us think. In many ways, it is also different and more complex than traditional software development. But, currently, the development and maintenance of most Web applications is chaotic and far from satisfactory. To successfully build and maintain large, complex Web-based systems and applications, Web developers need to adopt a disciplined development process and a sound methodology. The emerging discipline of Web engineering advocates a holistic, disciplined approach to successful Web development. In this chapter, we articulate and raise awareness of the issues and considerations in large, complex Web application development, and introduce Web engineering as a way of managing complexity and diversity of large-scale Web development.

Web engineering, an emerging new discipline, advocates a process and a systematic approach to development of high quality Web based systems. In contrast the commercial practice still remains ad-hoc. Although the Web based systems has become increasingly complex, the development process is still un-engineered. "There are very few standard methods for the Web developers to use. Hence, there is a strong need to understand and undertake Web engineering ". (Y. Deshpande and M. Gaedke, 2005) This paper is a result of our extensive survey of literature, our work and interaction with developers. This paper gives an introductory overview on Web engineering, it assesses similarities and differences between development of traditional software and Web based systems, and reviews some of the ongoing work in this area. We discuss the need for development of process model for Web based applications (WBA). such as is available far conventional software, with an overview of our work on development of such a process framework (R. Ahmad, et al, 2005). This paper also attempts to highlight the areas that need further study.

In most cases, development of Web-based systems has been ad hoc, lacking systematic approach and quality control and assurance procedures. Hence, there is now legitimate and growing concern about the manner in which Web-based systems are developed and their long-term quality and integrity. Web Engineering, an emerging new discipline, advocates a process and a systematic approach to development of high quality Web-based systems. It promotes the establishment and use of sound scientific, engineering and management principles, and disciplined and systematic approaches to development, deployment and maintenance of Web-based systems. This paper gives an introductory overview on Web Engineering. It presents the principles and roles of Web Engineering, assesses the similarities and differences between development of traditional software and Web-based systems, identifies key Web engineering activities and reviews some of the ongoing work in this area. It also highlights the prospects of Web engineering and the areas that need further study.

Inside a brief period, the Internet and World Wide Web have turned out to be universal, outperforming all other mechanical improvements in our history. They've likewise developed quickly in their extension and degree of utilization, altogether influencing all parts of our lives. Businesses, for example, assembling, travel and cordiality, banking, instruction, and government are Web-empowered to improve and upgrade their activities. Web based business has extended rapidly, cutting crosswise over national limits. Indeed, even conventional inheritance data and database frameworks have moved to the Web. Advances in remote innovations and Webempowered machines are setting off another rush of versatile Web applications. Accordingly, we progressively rely upon a scope of Web applications. Since a significant number of us depend on Web based frameworks and applications, they should be solid and perform well. To manufacture these frameworks and applications, Web designers need a sound system, a trained and repeatable procedure, better improvement instruments, and a lot of good rules. The rising field of Web building satisfies these necessities. It utilizes logical, designing, and the board standards and methodical ways to deal with effectively create, send, and keep up excellent Web frameworks and applications. It intends to acquire the present turmoil Web based framework advancement leveled out, limit dangers, and upgrade Web webpage viability and quality.

Welcome to the fourth edition of the International Conference on Web and Information technologies, ICWIT 2012. This year the ICWIT conference continued the tradition that has evolved from the inaugural conference held in 2008 in Sidi Bel-Abbes and since then has made its journey around the Maghreb: 2009 Sfax (Tunisia) and 2010 Marrakech (Morocco). This year we were happy to hold the event in Sidi Bel-Abbes, a city of 300,000 inhabitants in western Algeria. Sidi Bel-Abbes's geographical location has predestined the city to be a significant scientific, cultural and economic center with more than just regional influence. The ICWIT 2012 Conference provided a forum for research community and industry practitioners to present their latest findings in theoretical foundations current methodologies and practical experiences. ICWIT 2012 will focus on new research directions and emerging applications in Web and Information Technologies. The submitted contributions address challenging issues of Web Technologies, Web Security, Information Systems, Ontology Engineering and Wireless Communications.

Yogi Berra, a professional baseball player, manager, and erstwhile philosopher, said it best, "It's deja vu all over again." O f course, Yogi wasn't talking about Internet-based applications and ecommerce sites (what I'll call WebApps), but I digress. Maybe we should start at the beginning. About every 10 years or so, a major new software-related technology captures the industry's consciousness. Avant garde software folks claim it as their own, and in so doing, become the darlings of the technological scene. High salaries, considerable prestige, and no small amount of hubris are sure to follow. The corps of avant garde adherents argue that the new technology is truly different, requiring a new "paradigm." The ways of the past simply don't apply. In fact, the old ways can't possibly be adapted to a new set of business rules and technological realities. As a result, the avant garde reject the disciplines of the generation that preceded them, but ironically, adopt approaches that failed miserably a few generations back. The Internet and the vast array of applications that it has spawned are undoubtedly a major new software-related technology. I won't bore you with the obvious cliches; suffice it to say that the Internet and the WebApps that populate it are big-very big-
