Mockup-driven fast-prototyping methodology for Web applications

Abstract

Web application analysis and development can be highly complicated without an appropriate implementation model. This paper presents a mockup-driven fast-prototyping methodology (MODF-M) to elicit system requirements and expedite development of Web applications. Seamlessly incorporated with Web technologies such as J2EE, XML and EJB, MODFM provides a walk-through process to synergistically integrate requirements engineering with system development, as well as enhances the productivity and reliability of Web applications. MODFM is illustrated with a university administration system case study.
