Abstract:Several model-driven development (MDD) techniques for web applications exist; these techniques use meta-models for defining transformations and designing models. In this paper, we propose a meta-model for abstract web applications that can be mapped to multiple platforms. We extend a UML-based model to support specific features of the Web and Web 2.0 as well as to establish a bridge to functional and usability requirements through use cases and user interface (UI) prototypes. The meta-model also helps avoid a common MDD-related problem caused by name-based dependencies. Finally, mappings to a number of specific web platforms are presented in order to validate the appropriateness of
the meta-model as an abstract web model. |
