UWE AND OOWS: A COMPARATIVE APPROACH OF NAVIGATION MODELS FOR WEB ENGINEERING

With the increasing emergence of technologies that make use of the Internet, the need for methodologies that would help the development of applications for the web emerged. Researchers and developers in order to meet this lack proposed methodologies based on Software Engineering, creating a subarea of it, called web engineering. This work aims to compare two of these methods, known as UWE (UML Web Engineering) and OOWS (Object Oriented Web Solution). They define their own notation for modeling, which often run the same concepts. The study was conducted under a qualitative approach, seeking information through educational materials analysis, systematic review articles and monographs, which were starting tool for the study of comparative case method. Thus it was found, by building a navigational model, which methods have very similar concepts, being differentiated on how these concepts are represented. It was also found that the UWE method is more concerned with the structure of modeling, while the OOWS method prioritizes the functional system requirements.
