Summary

Summary

As most organizations have expanded traditional business space into web-based environments, a more complete and thorough understanding of Web engineering is becoming vital for organizations. However, the definition of Web engineering is growing more and more blurred. Although based primarily on MIS and computer science areas, Web engineering covers a wide range of disciplines, thus making it difficult to gain an understanding of the field. Web Engineering: Principles and Techniques provides clarity to this often muddied issue. Covering a wide range of topics such as: basic perspectives on Web engineering, development methodologies for Web applications, Web metrics and quality models, Web resource management techniques and standards, maintenance and evolution methods for Web applications, and Web intelligence techniques and models this book provides the necessary tools vital for organizations to utilize the full potential of Web engineering. Essential for both researchers and practitioners, Web Engineering: Principles and Techniques covers a wide range of topics vital to strengthening professional insights and capabilities within the field of Web engineering.

Choice Review

Web engineering is a young (from 1997 on), diverse, and multidisciplinary research field. Suh (Inha Univ., Korea) has pulled together a collection of 15 reviewed papers targeted to researchers and technical professionals. He served as editor, wrote the preface, and coauthored two papers. Topics include an introduction to Web engineering, a basic reference model for Web engineers, methodologies for general Web application development, relationship analysis applied to navigational links, an object-oriented approach for engineering location-based services, Web metrics applied to e-commerce, Web cost estimation, ontology-supported Web content management, design principles and applications of XRML (Extensible Rule Markup Language), restructuring of Web applications in dynamic development environments, methodologies for developing e-commerce applications, customer analysis-based methodologies, and Web intelligence applied to electronic catalogs and data mining. Many models are presented to assist an organization in managing and evolving its Web applications. Each paper provides references, and a short biography for each author is included in a separate section. A similar book is Web Engineering: Managing Diversity and Complexity of Web Application Development, ed. by San Murugesan and Yogesh Deshpande (2001). Serviceable but meager index. ^BSumming Up: Recommended. Graduate students through professionals. M. Mounts Dartmouth College
