This chapter presents Web Augmentation (WA) technologies as tools and techniques for end-user development. WA technologies differ from other web development technologies as they target at improving existing Web pages and not at creating new Web sites. These improvements can deeply alter the way users use and interact with Web sites. This chapter revisits the concept of WA and provides an overview of the main features that characterize WA technologies. This characterization is used to position and compare the various contributions that have been made in WA. To make things more concrete we provide an illustration of WA technology through a case study using a dedicated tool called WebMakeup. Despite all their advantages, WA technologies present some limitations that might result in challenges on the user side. These aspects are also presented and discussed, highlighting directions for future work in that domain.

“…OntoCompo exploits the three points of view for application composition identified in the state of the art, i.e., the three descriptions: UI, Tasks and Software Component (Assembly). The originality of this approach is to connect each of those models with the two others (Brel et al (2011)) by linking corresponding entities: (1) each graphical element is linked to tasks it supports; (2) each task is linked to graphical elements used to perform it;…”

“…Our application models are developed thanks to ontologies, allowing us to quickly perform the necessary requests for composing. OntoCompo (Brel et al (2011)) manipulates applications with Fractal 1 components (Bruneton et al (2006)), which must be semantically described. To implement our functions and algorithms, we make SPARQL requests, processed by the semantic engine CORESE / KGRAM (Corby et al (2012)).…”

Composing applications by considering in parallel both software components and UI elements is a complex process not yet very well supported by any current composition process model or composition environment. To contribute to better support the composition process, we propose a new composition model and a prototype of a component assembler, the so-called OntoCompo, which implements the model. The model describes applications in terms of Task, UI and software components. The prototype allows a composition mainly driven by the direct manipulation of UI elements, the other components being hidden, but still being linked to the UI elements. We performed a user testing with actual developers to evaluate if the composition process was actually facilitated by our modeling approach and the prototype implementing it.
