Composing User-specific Web Applications From Distributed Plug-ins
Sprache des Titels:

Original Kurzfassung:
Plug-in frameworks support the development of
component-based software that is extensible and can be customized
to the needs of specific users. However, most plugin
frameworks target desktop applications and do not support
web applications that can be extended by end users. In
contrast to that, our plug-in framework Plux supports customizable
and extensible web applications. Plux tailors a
web application to the needs of every user, by assembling it
from a user-specific component set. Furthermore, Plux supports
end-user extensions, by integrating components provided
by the end user into the web application. And finally,
Plux supports distributed web applications, by integrating
components on the client machines into the web application.
