Synopsis

As web sites become more complex, evolve beyond brochure-ware, and involve real programming and not just html tags, web developers are quickly finding out that web site development is not just web page design but that the principles of good software development/software engineering should be applied. This is one of the first wave of books to apply software engineering principles to web site consruction (internet, intranet, and extranet examples) in order to ensure web sites that are robust, secure and that they scale as an organization's needs grow. This book attempts to define a methodology to follow in building web site software by examining where traditional software engineering principles can be applied and where these do not apply and new methods have to be forged.

Book Overview:

This book systematically addresses the management and technical issues that arise when Web sites move from brochureware to sophisticated application deployment platforms. Web Site Engineering builds on the best software engineering principles, defining an enhanced new model for process-driven Web site development. It shows how Web sites are similar to traditional development projects -- and how to account for the substantial differences that remain. It provides systematic insight into the oft-neglected issues of Web site development, including problem definition, concept exploration, feasibility studies, testing, operation, maintenance -- and beyond. For all Web administrators, designers and MIS managers seeking to build and successfully manage sites with real content and real, business-critical applications.
