Web applicationsWWW has massive and permanent influence on our livesEconomy, Industry, education, healthcare, entertainmentWhy? global and permanentComfortable and uniform accessBasharat Mahmood, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan.113. Web applicationsWWW started as an informational mediumEvolved into application mediumInteractive, data intensive servicesDistinguishing factorsHow it is used?Technologies and standards for developmentBasharat Mahmood, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan.123. Web applicationsA Web application is a system that utilizes W3C standards & technologies to deliver web-specific resources to clients (typically) through a browserTechnology + interactionBasharat Mahmood, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan.134. The case for web engineeringApplication development on the Web remains largely ad hocunplanned, one-time eventsIndividual experienceLittle or no documentation for code/designShort-term savings lead to long-term problems in operation, maintenance, usability, etc.lack of performance, reliability, user-freindliness and scalability Because Web apps are so interdependent, the problem is compoundedBasharat Mahmood, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan.144. The case for web engineeringRoot Causes of poor design:Development as an authoring activityDevelopment is “easy”Techniques that should not be used are misappliedTechniques that should be used are not appliedBasharat Mahmood, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan.154. The case for web engineeringTop project drawbacks (Cutter, 2000)84% - Failure to meet business objectives79% - Project schedule delays63% - Budget overrun53% - Lack of functionalityWeb Engineering’s solution:Clearly defined goals & objectivesSystematic, phased developmentCareful planningIterative & continuous auditing of the entire processBasharat Mahmood, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan.165.
