A Schema-Based Approach to Web Engineering



Link to this resource

Modern WWW applications are highly integrated, rapidly changing, distributed multi-user systems which must take into account system and enterprise critical non-functional requirements. We present a twofold approach to web engineering: the static part addresses all aspects that belong to the contents of pages, text and images, while the dynamic part deals with inter-action with databases and other application systems. We will focus on the static part, called document engineering. It involves the tasks of document design, authoring, and document production. Our approach to web engineering will suggest the reusable components content, structure, navigation, and layout. We will present SchemaText, an integrated software tool, that provides a schema-based approach to web engineering. SchemaText implements the basic ideas of our methodology.

From the hypertext community, this paper describes an attempt to provide a schema-based system that controls authoring-in-the-large, ie the construction of a Web site or Web application consisting of interlinked independent pages.
