PWWM: A Personal Web Workflow Methodology

  • Chapter
The Personal Web

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 7855))

  • 694 Accesses

Abstract

The personal web vision promises to give users a highly personalized experience on the web. This paper proposes and describes a Personal Web Workflow Methodology, designed to elicit, operationalize and execute a personal web user’s goals. Our approach relies heavily on our prior research in goal modeling and operationalization, model matching and merging, and web service monitoring and recovery. We integrate this research with the social networking concept of crowd-sourcing to create a novel methodology for allowing users to produce customized workflows in order to accomplish their unique goals.
