WIED: A Web Modelling Language for Modelling Architectural-Level Information Flow
The ability to reliably and consistently develop systems that utilise Internet and Web technologies has become increasingly important. Thesesystems are typically both functionally complex and information-rich, and have a number of unique characteristics that should imply specificchanges to the development processes, methods and models that are adopted. One aspect that has received increasing attention isinformation modelling for these applications, particularly with respect to aspects such as navigation models and their relationships to theunderlying content. These models have typically focussed on modelling at a relatively low-level, however, and have failed to address higher levelaspects, such as architectural and even business process modelling. The paper introduces a formal information modelling set which canbe considered as a companion to to an existing modelling language - WebML - that facilitates information modelling at this higher level ofabstraction. We argue that this modelling approach will provide a clearer connection between an understanding of business models andprocesses, and the lower-level designs typically represented in existing models.
