Abstract

Web application designers should be able to integrate different methods and techniques in order to correctly organize the overall designimplementation- test process. Web applications, in fact, blend navigation and browsing capabilities, common to hypermedia, with “classical” operations and transactions, common to traditional information systems. Thus, new modeling requirements constantly arise, and hypermedia design models and tools must constantly evolve. In this paper we present MODE, a tool for conceptual modeling of web applications based on W2000 methodology. MODE can be used on its own - to support the design activity and produce all related design documents - or in conjunction with JWeb, a fast prototyping system for Web applications.
