“…On the other hand, and largely disconnected from the design-focused research (both in content and publication venues) the implementation-oriented research tackled a variety of issues, such as technological difficulties in building RIAs [Paulson 2005], performance issues [Dahlan and Nishimura 2008], service-oriented architectures for RIAs [Zhao et al 2010], component-based RIA development [Chang et al 2005], implementation support for largescale RIAs [Fukuda and Yamamoto 2008], thin and fat RIA clients [Dworak 2009], architectural styles [Lin 2007], implementation support for client-side event processing ], adhering to accessibility standards [Thiessen and C 2007], code optimizations for mobile devices [Alor-Hernandez et al 2009], security issues [Livshits and Erlingsson 2007;Kontaxis et al 2011], adaptivity in RIAs [Cosmin and N 2009] and distributed data access [Zhao et al 2010]. Remarkably, the majority of this work is spread over different research communities and publication venues, thereby confirming the multi-disciplinary nature of RIAs, but also keeping the body of knowledge dispersed.…”

“…Performance and scalability assessment are vastly more complex, and require new measures and ways to cope with the increased complex client-server communication caused by asynchronous calls and the distribution of task functionality. Handling data in a uniform way at the client side, under various frameworks and browser support, is another recognized problem for which few generally applicable solution proposals have been formulated (we mention [Zhao et al 2010] as a first attempt to unify RIA data access). Finally, security implications of the paradigm shift that RIAs embody, and that are highly relevant in an industrial setting, lack sufficient research to be considered solved (work specifically focusing on RIA security issues can be found in [Kontaxis et al 2011]and [Livshits and Erlingsson 2007]).…”

Ten Years of Rich Internet Applications

BACKGROUND. The term Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) is generally associated with Web applications that provide the features and functionality of traditional desktop applications. Ten years after the introduction of the term, an ample amount of research has been carried out to study various aspects of RIAs. It has thus become essential to summarize this research and provide an adequate overview. OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study is to assemble, classify, and analyze all RIA research performed in the scientific community, thus providing a consolidated overview thereof, and to identify well-established topics, trends, and open research issues. Additionally, we provide a qualitative discussion of the most interesting findings. This work therefore serves as a reference work for beginning and established RIA researchers alike, as well as for industrial actors that need an introduction in the field, or seek pointers to (a specific subset of) the state-of-the-art. METHOD. A systematic mapping study is performed in order to identify all RIA-related publications, define a classification scheme, and categorize, analyze, and discuss the identified research according to it. RESULTS. Our source identification phase resulted in 133 relevant, peer-reviewed publications, published between 2002 and 2011 in a wide variety of venues. They were subsequently classified according to four facets: development activity, research topic, contribution type, and research type. Pie, stacked bar, and bubble charts were used to depict and analyze the results. A deeper analysis is provided for the most interesting and/or remarkable results. CONCLUSION. Analysis of the results shows that, although the RIA term was coined in 2002, the first RIA-related research appeared in 2004. From 2007 there was a significant increase in research activity, peaking in 2009 and decreasing to pre-2009 levels afterwards. All development phases are covered in the identified research, with emphasis on “design” (33%) and “implementation” (29%). The majority of research proposes a “method” (44%), followed by “model” (22%), “methodology” (18%), and “tools” (16%); no publications in the category “metrics” were found. The preponderant research topic is “models, methods and methodologies” (23%) and, to a lesser extent, “usability and accessibility” and “user interface” (11% each). On the other hand, the topic “localization, internationalization and multilinguality” received no attention at all, and topics such as “deep Web” (under 1%), “business processing”, “usage analysis”, “data management”, “quality and metrics” (all under 2%), “semantics”, and “performance” (slightly above 2%) received very little attention. Finally, there is a large majority of “solution proposals” (66%), few “evaluation research” (14%), and even fewer “validation” (6%), although the latter have been increasing in recent years.

“…Several experiment evaluations of the HTMLS Local Storage API [12], [2] indicate that the performance differs greatly from one browser to an other. The results in [12] shows that the indexed DB performs faster in Firefox (using the SQLite database) than in Google Chrome (using the LevelDB, which is a library proposed by Google to provide an ordered mapping from string keys to string values).…”

“…Since all required data are stored locally, the user can continue inter acting with the application even when the network connection is off. Second, these APIs provide richer and more interactive 978-1-4799-8099-4114/$31 .00 ©2014 IEEE 47 user interfaces [2]. Finally, the data transfer to client side removes unnecessary message's exchanges between the client and the server [1].…”

Local data storage is one of the features that came with the HTML5 standard. Its purpose is to ensure the storage of web application's data in the device of the user rather than in the server side. With HTM5, the storage is no more achieved by proprietary solution as it is ensured by standardized APIs.However, with this new functionality that improves the user's quality of experience, it is crucial to reassure the end user about his data protection when they are stored locally and when they are externalized. In this work, our contribution deals with the assurance and security of data stored by HTML5 APIs.These measures are integrated into the browser to be performed automatically. In fact, data will be stored safely in a secure local space devoted to each user.As a proof of concept, we implemented our approach on the chromium browser, and we studied its performances.
