Motivation

Problems

 Web as platform for communication between


 applications and users
 different components of an application

 integration across heterogeneous platforms


 security, synchronization, and failure in

asynchronous distributed systems


 interoperability of applications whose

development is distributed in space, time, and


authority
 communication between business experts and
developers

 Benefits
 Simplicity: HTTP request and response
 Ubiquity: everywhere, everytime, on every device
available (at least in theory)
 Uniformity: based on standards (HTTP, HTML,
XML)

Separation of Concerns



Model--Based Development: Models as


Model

separation of presentation from content


layered architectures: separating GUI and data
management from business logic

means of communication
 between distributed developers
 team members with different roles and background
 over time: as precise documentation (distribution over
time)

XML Standards


platform-independent high
platformhigh--level languages for
communication, coordination, specification, binding,
security, of services
meta language to define and extend languages

contracts between service providers and requestors


designs to be analyzed for critical properties
 security, synchronization,

platform-independent designs to be reused on


platformdifferent implementation platforms
