Model-driven web engineering methods: a literature review
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.redin.12487Keywords:
model-driven software development, model-driven web engineering, web engineeringAbstract
This paper presents some of the model-driven Web engineering methods that have been proposed, and discusses and analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of such methods regarding current tendencies and best practices on model-driven engineering. The idea is to present each approach and analyze the models they propose to represent Web applications, the architectural aspects in the transformations, and the use of current Web user interface technologies in the generated code. This is done in order to depict possible research lines for future works on the model-driven Web engineering area.
