    Study Notes

    Overview of Web Application Development

    • Different mobile platforms support different programming languages: Symbian^3, Bada, and BREW support C and C++, while webOS primarily uses JavaScript with HTML/CSS.
    • Each mobile platform requires a specific development environment: iOS apps are developed using Apple XCode on Mac OS, Windows Phone apps use Microsoft Visual Studio on Windows, Symbian^3 uses the Qt environment, and webOS apps are developed using Ares browser-based development environment in combination with Eclipse IDE.
    • Mobile Application Lifecycle Management involves understanding tools to enhance productivity and challenges encountered during different application development stages.
    • Web engineering is defined as the systematic and quantifiable approaches to cost-effective analysis, design, implementation, testing, operation, and maintenance of high-quality web applications.
    • A web application utilizes W3C standards and technologies to deliver web-specific resources to clients through a browser, ensuring careful examination of software and UI aspects.
    • The ad hoc nature of web application development leads to individual experience, lack of documentation, and short-term savings resulting in long-term operational and maintenance problems.
    • The root causes of poor web application design include development as an authoring activity, misapplication of techniques, and the shift of mission-critical apps to the web.
    • The top project pitfalls in web application development include failure to meet business objectives, project schedule delays, budget overruns, and lack of functionality.
    • Web engineering's solution involves clearly defined goals and objectives, systematic development, careful planning, and iterative auditing of the entire process.
    • Different categories of web applications include ubiquitous, complexity, collaborative, workflow-based, transactional, social, web portal-oriented, interactive, and document-centric.
    • Web applications have evolved from static HTML documents to interactive and transactional systems, workflow-based applications, collaborative and social web environments, and portal-oriented single points-of-entry to heterogeneous information.
    • The characteristics of web apps, as defined by the ISO/IEC 9126-1 standard, encompass product usage, development characteristics, and product-related characteristics, including content, document character, and multimedia.
