Handling Usability Aspects for the Construction of Business Process Driven Web Applications

Abstract

Users consider usability aspects as a key factor when using Web applications. For this reason, in this work we take a special care in this very important issue. In particular, we are centred on usability aspects regarding business process driven Web applications. Therefore, in this work we gather a set of guidelines provided by experts in Web usability and present the solution designed in a particular Web engineering method that follows a model driven development approach. The provided solution bases on the introduction of these guidelines following two different approaches. The former implies handling usability guidelines at the modeling level. The latter implies using them for the definition of the transformation rules that generate the corresponding usable Web applications.
