“…These interactions often depend on the device, the operating system and the application itself. This section presents a mobile extension of IFML designed for expressing the content, user interaction, and control behaviour of the front-end of mobile applications [13]. An excerpt of those extensions, along with the IoT extensions presented in Section 4, is depicted in Fig.…”

Internet of Things technologies and applications are evolving and continuously gaining traction in all fields and environments, including homes, cities, services, industry and commercial enterprises. However, still many problems need to be addressed. For instance, the IoT vision is mainly focused on the technological and infrastructure aspect, and on the management and analysis of the huge amount of generated data, while so far the development of front-end and user interfaces for IoT has not played a relevant role in research. On the contrary, user interfaces can play a key role in the acceptance of IoT solutions by final adopters. In this paper we discuss the requirements and usage scenarios covering the front end aspects of IoT systems and we present a model-driven approach to the design of such interfaces by: defining specific components and design patterns using a visual modeling language for IoT applications; describing an implementation of the solution that comprises also automatic code generation from models; and by showing the solution at work.

Abstract:Web applications act as a source of strength for business growth over the internet and have become the backbone of the e-commerce. With the evolution of these type of applications, numerous features have been added to overcome the issues of complexities of the processes development web engineering methods. These methods are intended for specific purposes, and there has been some lack of the development of web applications, especially concerning the new types of web applications. The problem is that web engineering methods cannot support new features of web applications, furthermore no single method to support all types of web applications. In an attempt to solve this problem, a significant amount of work has been undertaken to improve or extend these methods to develop new types of web applications. In this paper, we make a comparison between web engineering methods (including IFML) to support the features of modern web applications. The result of our comparison will show the capability of the methods to support modern and multi web applications, and help the developers in the process development web applications.

Web engineering is a systematic approach to develop web applications, and numerous web engineering methods have been proposed. These methods were extended through defining new models by using different mechanisms to capture the web application concepts. Due to the complexity rising of web applications, the web engineering methods cannot provide web solutions anymore. Even though Interaction Flow Modeling Language (IFML) is recently proposed as a new method for developing web applications, it has limitations. Therefore these methods need to be improved. In this paper, we present the ability of IFML extensibility to support new concerns from web applications. Moreover, we extend IFML through UML mechanisms to support new concerns from the context to the user interface. The new IFML solves the lack of context web application through defining a new model and becomes a new direction to develop concerns modern web applications.
