The World Wide Web has a massive and permanent influence on our lives. Economy, industry, education, healthcare, public administration, entertainment – there is hardly any part of our daily lives which has not been pervaded by the Internet. Accordingly, modern Web applications are fully-fledged, complex software systems, and in order to be successful their development must be thorough and systematic. This book presents a new discipline called Web Engineering taking a rigorous interdisciplinary approach to the development of Web applications, covering Web development concepts, methods, tools and techniques. It highlights the need to examine and re-use the body of knowledge found within software engineering and demonstrates how to use that knowledge within the Web environment, putting emphasize on current practices, experiences and pitfalls.The book is ideal for undergraduate and graduate students on Web-focused or Software Engineering courses, as well as Web software developers, Web designers and project managers.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 39th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2020, which was supposed to be held in Vienna, Austria, in November 2020, but the conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.The 28 full and 16 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 143 submissions. This events covers a wide range of topics, and the papers are organized in the following sessions: foundations of conceptual modeling; process mining and conceptual modeling; conceptual modeling of business rules and processes; modeling chatbots, narratives and natural language; ontology and conceptual modeling; applications of conceptual modeling; schema design, evolution, NoSQL; empirical studies of conceptual modeling; networks, graphs and conceptual modeling; and conceptual modeling of complex and data-rich systems.

The two-volume set LNCS 15701 + 15702 constitutes the proceedings of the 37th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2025, which was held in Vienna, Austria, during June 16–17, 2025. The 35 papers included in the proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 229 submissions.

Das Buch gibt einen hochaktuellen Einstieg mit Tiefgang in die objektorientierte Entwicklung von Informationssystemen. Das Ziel des Buches ist es, unabhängig von einer konkreten Methode die grundlegenden Konzepte, Darstellungsmittel, Verfahrensschritte und Techniken zur objektorientierten Modellierung von Informationssystemen aufzuzeigen. Der Leser lernt objektorientierte Modellierungskonzepte und Techniken zu verstehen, eine aufgabenspezifische Bewertung einer konkreten Methode durchzuführen und gegebenenfalls für seine eigenen Probleme einzusetzen. Zahlreiche Beispiele veranschaulichen die unmittelbare Einsetzbarkeit des vermittelten Wissens. Das Buch bietet darüber hinaus eine aktuelle Orientierungshilfe zum Verständnis der umfangreichen objektorientierten Methodenlandschaft.

After a brief explanation of why modeling is an indispensable part of software development, the authors introduce the individual diagram types of UML (the class and object diagram, the sequence diagram, the state machine diagram, the activity diagram, and the use case diagram), as well as their interrelationships, in a step-by-step manner.

Web engineering is now a well-established and mature ?eld of research with strong relationships with other disciplines such as software engineering, human-computer interaction, and arti?cial intelligence. Web engineering has also been recognized as a multidisciplinary ?eld, which is growing fast together with the growth of the World Wide Web. This evolution is manifested in the richness of the Web Engineering Conferences which attract researchers, prac- tioners, educators, and students from di?erent countries. Thisvolumecontainstheproceedingsofthe10thInternationalConferenceon WebEngineering(ICWE2010),whichwasheldinVienna,Austria,inJuly2010. The ICWE conferences are among the most essential events of the Web en- neering community. This fact is manifested both by the number of accomplished researchers that support the conference series with their work and contributions as well as by the continuing patronage of several international organizations dedicated to promoting research and scienti?c progress in the ?eld of Web en- neering.ICWE 2010 followed conferences in San Sebastian, Spain; Yorktown Heights, NY, USA; Como, Italy; Palo Alto, CA, USA; Sydney, Australia; Munich, G- many; Oviedo, Spain; Santa Fe, Argentina; and Caceres, Spain. This year's call for research papers attracted a total of 120 submissions from 39 countries spanning all continents of the world with a good coverage of all the di?erent aspects of Web engineering. Topics addressed by the contributions includedareasrangingfrommoretraditional?eldssuchasmodel-drivenWeb- gineering,Webservices,performance,search,SemanticWeb,quality,andtesting to novel domains such as the Web 2.0, rich Internet applications, and mashups.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2011, held in Paphos, Cyprus, in December 2011. The 54 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 184 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on business process modeling, quality of service, formal methods, XaaS computing, service discovery, service security and trust, service runtime infrastructures and service applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Theory and Practice of Model Transformations, ICMT 2013, held in Budapest, Hungary, in June 2013.
