Dynamic Frames-Based Generation of Web 2.0 Applications

development. While GP addresses the automatic generation of source code, FT advocates its adaptation to diverse reuse contexts. With an aim to utilize benefits of both approaches, this paper presents the SCT dynamic frames model that supports the automatic generation of Web 2.0 applications. The SCT model encompasses three essential components: Specification (S), which refers to application features, Configuration (C), which describes application development rules, and Template (T), which denotes application building blocks. Owing to its flexibility, readability, interactivity, and other object-oriented features, the Python scripting language was selected for the implementation of the generator. In order to demonstrate the appropriateness and usefulness of the proposed approach, an example that illustrates the generation of a Web 2.0 application for database management is provided.
