“…The development process of the webware subsystem according to CADMOS follows the principles of the object oriented hypermedia design method (OOHDM) [28,29], which has provided systematic ways to design generic hypermedia applications and not especially educational ones. In this section we deal with the definition of the entities that will be under control, i.e.…”

“…Although there is still no consensus on a general life cycle model of a web application, one can identify a set of typical activities involved in the development of a web application by analysing the life cycle models of traditional information systems and the proposals for structured hypermedia design [28,[34][35][36]. Presently, it seems that no specific tool or class of tools is fully addressing the whole life cycle of web applications, which require the same communication paradigm and interface quality [37].…”

Abstract:The management of the infrastructure and content of the World Wide Web is a growing problem for the development of web-based educational applications (WbEA) and is hidden beneath the tremendous benefits of the web. Moreover, such systems undergo more frequent and quite extensive changes in their development and operational period because the client's perception (either the learner, the teacher or institutional organisation) of the complete end product is a 'moving target'. So, there is a need for a disciplined approach to managing the evolution of web-based educational applications. Such a disciplined approach as applied throughout the software engineering process is called software configuration management (SCM). This paper begins a discussion of how the development of web-based educational applications could benefit from SCM techniques and tools and proposes a model for the management of the evolution of such systems. The model couples the development and evolution process of WbEA configurations into one framework, which seems promising for the implementation of a configuration management process. Also, the model focuses on the development of the web-based educational content, defining the configurations of the items involved in the underlying process. Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the benefits of the use of this approach.Keywords: web-based educational applications; software configuration management; version control; learning technology systems; e-learning; learning resources; learning management systems; instructional design; evaluation.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Psaromiligkos, Y.

The relative weight given by respondents to benefits that emphasize improved efficiencies in cost and speed suggests an inclination to use methodologies that assist project management.…”

. He has 15 years experience of research, lecturing, consultancy and practice in the information systems field. His expertise lies in the fields of systems analysis and design techniques and methodologies; requirements determination; multimedia and Web design and development; computer-aided systems engineering (CASE); management decision systems. 1 Techniques and Methodologies for Multimedia Systems Development: A Survey of Industrial PracticeThis paper tries to answer the question -how are multimedia systems being developed in practice? Herein are reported the findings of a preliminary postal survey of the top 1000 companies from General Industry and the principal 100 companies from the Multimedia Industry in Ireland, which reveal that there is no uniform approach to multimedia systems development and that approaches prescribed by the literature are not being used in practice. Nonetheless, the findings are clear that practitioners are favourably inclined towards the use of systematic methods and techniques for multimedia development. This survey paves the way for more detailed and insightful qualitative research into development practices.
