Capturing Forms in Web Information Systems - IIT 2007
Abstract: In Web Information Systems (WISs) forms are one of the major interaction instruments that allow users to enter data and thus direct the communication process with the system. In this paper we approach the capture of forms in a conceptual WIS model. Abstracting from low-level forms processing a form can be considered to be part of an interaction type that can be formalised by a generalised view. In this way the concept of media type, which is central to the codesign approach to WISs, provide a natural way to integrate forms into WIS development.
