A Web Services Infrastructure for the Management of Mashup Interfaces

Abstract

In the technological world of today, user interfaces (as an essential part of many software applications) are constantly changing in order to meet the needs of different users and adapt to their environment. Accordingly, there is a need for mechanisms to carry out these change processes. This article describes a structure of web services which support the adaptation which constructs mashup type web user interfaces. These interfaces are constructed using third party component architectures, called COTSgets.
