A methodology for designing and maintaining data-intensive Web sites is introduced. Leveraging on ideas well established in the database field, the approach heavily relies on the use of models for the description of Web sites. The design process is composed of two intertwined activities: database design and hypertext design. Each of these is further divided in a conceptual phase and a logical phase, based on specific data models. The methodology strongly supports site maintenance: in fact, the various models provide a concise description of the site structure; they allow to reason about the overall organization of pages in the site and possibly to restructure it.

Abstract
A methodology for designing and maintaining data-intensive Web sites is introduced. Leveraging on ideas well established in the database field, the approach heavily relies on the use of models for the description of Web sites. The design process is composed of two intertwined activities: database design and hypertext design. Each of these is further divided in a conceptual phase and a logical phase, based on specific data models. The methodology strongly supports site maintenance: in fact, the various models provide a concise description of the site structure; they allow to reason about the overall organization of pages in the site and possibly to restructure it.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
