When developing composite web applications, non-programmers have to be assisted by recommendations. In the light of ad-hoc mashup development, users' heterogeneous skills and approaches, as well as different focus of mashup platforms, a variety of ...

Tags have been extensively utilized to annotate Web services, which is beneficial to the management, classification and retrieval of Web service data. In the past, a plenty of work have been done on tag recommendation for Web services and their ...

Mashups are agile applications that aggregate RESTful services, developed by third parties, whose functions are exposed as Web Application Program Interfaces (APIs) within public repositories. From mashups developers’ viewpoint, Web API search may ...

In this work we present an approach for creating Personal Web applications by reusing existing content that can be extracted even from third-party Web sites. Our approach starts with the harvesting of content from diverse Web sites, by DOM manipulation. ...

A wide range of Mobile Web-based applications are nowadays being built and proposed as mashup applications. Their aim is to be intuitive enough to be easily created by end-users directly selecting interactive elements, content and functionalities from ...

Information and communication technologies have a great potential to enhance personal experience in cultural heritage sites. Our research in the Cultural Heritage (CH) aims to foster a wider appreciation of archaeology by offering tools able to engage ...

Pattern mining, that is, the automated discovery of patterns from data, is a mathematically complex and computationally demanding problem that is generally not manageable by humans. In this article, we focus on small datasets and study whether it is ...

Universal Composition is a promising way to support the long tail of user needs. While most mashup platforms only support single-user scenarios, CRUISE enables the reconfiguration of multi-user mashups during runtime. A major requirement for tool-...

Data aggregation platforms are often depicted as a panacea for users wanting to examine correlations within the multi-faceted data that they collect. In this paper we describe inherent challenges with the provision of multi-faceted, correlational ...

Nowadays, mobile devices are the first choice for seeking information and content consumption on the Web. However, the overwhelming amount of available web resources, significantly affects the quality of the results returned by search systems. ...

While more and more data are available through web services, it remains difficult for end-users to create web applications that make use of these data without having to write complex code. We present Gneiss, a live programming environment that extends ...

Mashup technologies offer numerous capabilities for innovative applications and services development and integration. Content accessing via mashups' interoperable and dynamic interfaces facilitates new enterprise models, while technological tools and ...

Cross domain communication has been a long-discussed subject in the field of web-based application, especially for any sort of mashups where a single web app combines resources from different locations. This issue becomes more important in the Web of ...

The opportunities of the Internet combined with new devices and technologies change the end users' habits in media consumption. While end users often search for related information to the currently watched TV show by themselves, we propose to improve ...

During the last few years, social media technologies have started to be used for collaborative learning. While most of the case studies reported so far involve a single social media tool or several individual, separate tools, in this paper we advocate ...

In this paper, we describe a novel approach for the automatic generation of a GEO-MASHUP related to a user his outdoor activities. Each mashup consists of online geotagged media resources related to the geographic keypoints where the outdoor activity ...

People now have access to many sources of data about their health and wellbeing. Yet, most people cannot wade through all of this data to answer basic questions about their long-term wellbeing: Do I gain weight when I have busy days? Do I walk more when ...

Web mashups can add "agility" to software construction by enabling end-users without programming skills to compose their own service software on the basis of existing services. All that is needed for such purposes is a good mashup composition tool. The ...

The Internet offers a wide range of information and media content. Currently, users who are watching a video and look for related information have to search for it by themselves. In our recent work we focused on how to enrich video content with ...

In the domain of Web applications, several model-based approaches have been introduced, supporting user-centered requirements engineering and thereon the identification of presentation elements and interaction techniques. Semantic application modeling ...
