Due to the rapid expansion of web applications, the information and services provided on the web have proliferated, leading to ever-increasing complexity. This has not only resulted in the utmost significance of information quality and accuracy on the web, but has also necessitated that access to information be improved. Hence, adaptive web systems have emerged, which focus on adapting web content, presentation, and navigation to meet the needs of the users according to their individual circumstances and preferences. In this field, focus has gradually shifted from creation of new adaptive techniques to solving the problems of analysis and design of adaptive applications; in other words, it has become important to handle the dynamism of the runtime environment and the complexity involved in developing these applications. Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) is considered a promising approach for overcoming these problems, mainly due to its modeling features: Models are created at different levels of abstraction (thus enhancing complexity management), and the process can potentially be automated through the use of transformation rules. We provide a review of several prominent methodologies that utilize MDE for developing adaptive web applications, and propose a criteria-based evaluation approach that highlights their strengths and weaknesses. Evaluation results can be used for comparing and selecting methodologies for use in web development projects; they can also be used for constructing a new methodology that exploits the strengths and addresses the shortcomings of existing methodologies.

“…As shown in Table 1, the system processes considered do not satisfy these different ubiquitous requirements at the same time. It is true that complete processes including ubiquitous requirement engineering do exist, such as that of Batini et al (2007), but the basic concepts are not sufficient to guide context specification.…”

Ubiquity in Information Systems (ISs) is a new requirement widely expressed by customers and users due to emerging and evolving communication and mobile technologies. Each IS should support a set of mobile applications used either to interact smartly with the changing environment, to provide adaptive services to customers or both. Designing ISs with highly technological risks requires a precise and appropriate development process. However, such processes fail to consider ubiquitous requirements throughout the development process. This paper tries to solve this issue by proposing a process for identifying and modeling ubiquitous requirements that can be integrated into an existing IS engineering process. This process, called E-CARe, focuses on adapting to the surrounding context; this requires detailed specification and analysis work by a context designer. E-CARe uses an event-driven logic, as dynamicity and reactivity are the major properties required from ubiquitous applications. A Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) approach is used to automate specification work. In order to test the process, a case study from the intelligent transport domain is applied as an illustration.

“…In fact, several proposals for the adoption of planners in web service composition turned out to exploit workflow engines for the service execution; (e.g. see Laures and Jank, 2005;Mandell and McIlraith, 2003. An interesting approach to the design of web-based applications is provided by the web engineering community; for example, Batini et al (2007) propose a unified methodology for the design of multi-channel adaptive Web-based information systems. We believe that this work is complementary to our own.…”
