Paper Abstract:
|
Rich Internet Applications (RIA) technology leads to new opportunities in Web development, adding a new level of
usability and overcoming several limitations of traditional Web applications. However, there are still a few gaps in RIA
development, namely the lack of methodologies enabling direct evolution of traditionally developed Web applications
into this new concept. This paper describes a methodology to adapt User Interfaces (UI) from Web 1.0 into Web 2.0
introducing RIA capabilities, maintaining the business logic and data access layers legacy.
The main system architecture is maintained and the new concept is achieved by adding a new Web services encapsulation
layer responsible to intermediate the business logic layer and the new UI layer, providing a seamless and dynamic
integration.
For validating this methodology, a prototype was developed by applying and evaluating the suggested methodology. The
results obtained validate that this methodology is appropriate for the given problem. |
