Diseño e implementación de una herramienta web para el análisis y ayuda para la toma de decisiones de tecnologías de acceso.

[EN]Nowadays the use of web applications is a routine not only for companies but also for anyone interested in them. Thus, this market has risen hugely since the introduction of The Internet in our daily lives. Everyone has experienced the moment when you have to choose an access service and you do not know which one to select. At that moment, it is when this web application comes into action. It provides a useful interface in order to choose between access services as well as an analysis tool for the different access technologies in the market. Written in Java language, this web application is as simple as it can be, offering a complete interface that meets the needs of everyone, from the people at home to the largest company.

Open Personalization: Involving Third Parties in Improving the User Experience of Websites

Traditional software development captures the user needs during the requirement analysis. The Web makes this endeavour even harder due to the difficulty to determine who these users are. In an attempt to tackle the heterogeneity of the user base, Web Personalization techniques are proposed to guide the users’ experience. In addition, Open Innovation allows organisations to look beyond their internal resources to develop new products or improve existing processes. This thesis sits in between by introducing Open Personalization as a means to incorporate actors other than webmasters in the personalization of web applications. The aim is to provide the technological basis that builds up a trusty environment for webmasters and companion actors to collaborate, i.e. "an architecture of participation". Such architecture very much depends on these actors’ profile. This work tackles three profiles (i.e. software partners, hobby programmers and end users), and proposes three "architectures of participation" tuned for each profile. Each architecture rests on different technologies: a .NET annotation library based on Inversion of Control for software partners, a Modding Interface in JavaScript for hobby programmers, and finally, a domain specific language for end-users. Proof-of-concept implementations are available for the three cases while a quantitative evaluation is conducted for the domain specific language.
