    Study Notes

    WAS Functional Modeling Methods

    • Web Application Systems (WAS) are complex with a large number of functions.
    • System requirement analysis is essential for design, development, and testing.
    • WASFM (Web Application System Functional Model) is a formal model for describing WAS functions.

    Common Function Modeling Methods

    • UML (Unified Modeling Language) is a standard modeling language used in object-oriented technology.
    • IDEF0 (Integrated Definition for Function Modeling) is a function modeling method.
    • GTST (Goal-tree Success-Tree) is a functional modeling method.
    • GTST divides the system into small goals, creating a goal tree and success tree to represent system functions.
    • GTST is suitable for simple systems, but for complex systems, the model becomes too large and difficult to understand.

    WASFM Model Definitions

    • WASFM defines three types of functions:
      • Catalog function: Navigational links to arrange system contents.
      • Page function: Functional links that correspond to a specific web page.
      • Button function: Operative buttons corresponding to specific operations.
    • WAS functions are represented as a set of catalog, page, and button functions.

    WASFM Components

    • FR (Functional Requirements): A set of catalog, page, and button functions
    • CF (Catalog Function): A combination of function name, level, and parent function (PAF)
    • PF (Page Function): A combination of function name, URL, PAF, and page contents (PC)
    • BF (Button Function): A combination of function name, operation name (ON), parent function page (PF), operation logic (OL), and corresponding list area (CL)
    • AD (Area Description): An area within a page, with an ID, position, area type (AT), and area content (AC).
    • SAC (Static Area Content): A static area within a page, with a content description (CD).
    • NAC (Navigation Area Content): A navigation area within a page, with a navigation description (ND) and relationship (NR).
    • QAC (Query Area Content): A query area within a page, with query field description (FD), fields relationships (FR), query type (QT), and corresponding list area (CL).
    • FD (Field Description): A field within a page, with field name (FN), control type (CT), empty status, value, default, and field limit (FL).
    • LAC (List Area Content): A list area within a page, with columns (Col), column sequence (CSeq), rows (Row), row sequence (RSeq), sorting options (Sort), page number (PN), refresh settings (Refresh), and refresh frequency (RF).
    • FAC (Form Area Content): A form area within a page, with field descriptions (FD).
    • PAC (Page Area Content): A page area within a page, with a content description (CD).

    WASFM Model Example

    • The example uses DMIMS (University Information Management System) to demonstrate WASFM practical application.
    • DMIMS has five top modules: System Management, Course Management, Reservation Management, Content Management, and Achievements Management.

    Conclusion

    • WASFM provides a formal way to describe web application functions with precision.
    • Applying WASFM enables:
      • Accurate understanding of system requirements.
      • Clear development task definition.
      • Detailed system comprehension for testing purposes.
      • Potential for automated programming and testing.
