Abstract

The nature of Web information is clarified and modeled as the adjunction space model. Practical Web information management requires Web information to be modeled in such a way that the model captures the dynamic changes, present the dynamism visually, and validate the results formally. As the mathematical ground of the model, we have adopted algebraic topology, cellular spatial structures in the homotopic framework and adjunction spaces in particular. The results have been applied successfully to typical Web information systems such e-finance and e-manufacturing to validate the advantages of our Web information modeling over the popular relational model, the entity relationship model, UML, and XML.
