Model-based Systems Engineering with Object-process Methodology and SysML: Visualizing Semantics, Services, and Applications

Exploring The Web presents a unique, comprehensible treatment of the Web, from its foundations to cutting-edge technologies and applications. The work goes beyond major web developments by demonstrating how the Semantic Web facilitates joint interaction between human beings and machines. In a systematic exposition, the book examines the principles underlying web design, the technologies that support its operations, and a host of web applications. The material covers web fundamentals and XML, Web Services, the Semantic Web, and an array of applications.This work targets researchers and professionals working in web areas that affect software engineering, systems architecture, analysis and design methods, and modeling and simulation, making the book relevant to developers of various domains. It is also designed for advanced undergraduates and graduates in courses such as Web Services, Web technologies, Semantic Web, Analysis and Design of Web-based Systems, and Modeling Web Applications.
