T-Araneus: Management of Temporal Data-Intensive Web Sites

T-Araneus is a tool for the generation of Web sites with special attention to temporal aspects. It builds on previous experiences in the management of data-intensive Web-sites, and is based on the use of high level models throughout the design process. The main feature is the adoption of a logical model for temporal Web sites, T-ADM, which allows the definition of page-schemes with temporal aspects (which could be related to the page as a whole or to individual components of it). The design process follows a development that starts with a traditional E-R scheme; the various steps lead to a temporal E-R scheme, to a navigation scheme and finally to a T-ADM scheme. The tool automatically generates both the relational database (with the temporal features needed) supporting the site and the actual Web pages, which can be dynamic (JSP) or static (plain HTML), or a combination thereof.
