Modeling the Structure of Web Applications with ArgoUWE

The UWE methodology provides a systematic, UML-based approach for the development of Web applications. The CASE tool ArgoUWE supports the design phase of the UWE development process. It is implemented as a plugin module of the open source ArgoUML modeling tool. The construction process of Web applications is supported by incorporating the semi-automatic UWE development steps as well as the OCL well-formedness rules of the UWE metamodel. The increasing complexity of Web applications requires mainly process and tool support. Such support is offered by the UWE (“UML-based Web Engineering” [3]) method and the ArgoUWE [2] CASE tool1 . The main features of ArgoUWE are the support of visual modeling, UML compliance, and open source characteristic. The design of a Web application is performed according to the UML-based notations and the steps defined by the UWE method. UWE is an UML-based, object-oriented, iterative, and incremental approach for the development of Web applications. In a s...
