Abstract:
Current Web modelling languages fail to adequately support the representation of some aspects of Web systems, particularly higher-level
information aspects. In response to this we have proposed WIED - an information modelling notation which addresses this concern.
Previously WIED has been illustrated using custom notations that are consistent with WebML. Due to the acceptance of UML as a de facto
standard for modelling, we have developed a set of UML-compliant notations for representing the various WIED entities. This then leads to
an ability of WIED to form bridges to other models in UML modelled system. In this paper we provide guidelines for supporting the
derivation of the WIED model to these different models, thereby providing a concrete link between them. We illustrate these guidelines with
a detailed example.
