    Delta communication: the power of the rich internet applications
    (IACSIT Press, 2017-06-01) Dissanayake, N. R; Dias, G. K. A
    Web applications have evolved into much complex Rich Internet Applications, providing rich features and enhanced user experience. Proper definitions, which deliver abstract realization of the fundamental concepts of the Rich Internet Application are still missing. Definitions provide proper understanding of the subject and help in increasing the realization of the characteristics of the same. This paper focuses on conceptually identifying the characteristics of the rich communication model of the Rich Internet Applications – commonly known as the “Asynchronous Communication” – suggesting a better term “Delta-Communication”, followed by a definition for it. Based on the definition, we propose a term and a definition for the abstract model of the simplest rich communication technique, which is exploited in AJAX. Additionally, based on the proposed definition for the rich communication model, the paper proposes a new term to replace the term AJAX to overcome the limitations expressed by the term AJAX. These terms and definitions specify and express the fundamental characteristics of the abstract concepts of the rich communication model of the Rich Internet Applications.

    Essential features a general AJAX rich internet application architecture should have in order to support rapid application development
    (IACSIT Press, 2014-10-01) Dissanayake, N. R; Dias, G. K. A
    Rich Internet Applications have gained a good demand in web engineering, and AJAX plays a major role as a script based technique to develop Rich Internet Applications, even though its adoption is considered difficult due to various complexities. If the root cause for these complexities can be identified and the difficulties can be overcome, we can simplify the AJAX based Rich Internet Applications engineering and support the Rapid Application Development methodology to produce Rich Web Apps faster, while maintaining the quality. We have identified the importance of a general architecture for Rich Internet Applications – which is capable of addressing the difficulties in AJAX adoption – and we propose some essential features which need to be expected from the general architecture; based on the knowledge gained from a survey and a series of experiments. These features are supposed to be used, to design a general hybrid Rich Internet Application architecture – which increases the support in Rapid Application Development – in our ongoing research.
