Abstract

Various approaches have been proposed in the field of Web engineering that attempt to exploit the advantages of XML/XSL technologies. Although a strict separation of presentation and content achieved through XML/XSL has many advantages, a considerable effort is involved in using these technologies to develop Web sites. The lack of experience in XML/XSL can be a major cause for the extra effort. In several XML/XSL-based Web projects, we felt the need for a methodology that systematically guides the developer in the field through the development process, while taking into account the limitations and strengths of XML. In this paper, we present XGuide, a practical guide for XML-based Web Engineering that focuses on parallel development. XGuide is a methodology for XML/XSL-based Web development that is tool-independent and hence, can be used with a broad range of development tools. We are currently using the XGuide approach in several Web projects.
