Abstract The Vula wiki tool is under-utilized in the computer science department at UCT, and in some other departments has been replaced by alternative wiki tools that are easier to use. Since the wiki can be a valuable educational tool, it was decided thatgamificiation should be used to increase the usability of the Vula wiki on mobile phones. This led to the development of a system for computer science undergraduate students which used an iterative user-centered design approach; consisting of a design, implementation and evaluation of a prototype in each stage. Initially, two low-fidelity then two high-fidelity prototypes are developed whilst incorporating user feedback from the previous iteration. At the same time, gamification rules, which are influenced largely by the GameFlow criteria for player enjoyment in games, are refined continually. Thereafter, the final system is completed and evaluated with a summative evaluation using the experimental process (on just 10 users). Overall, there has been no (significant) improvement in the usability of the Vula wiki through gamification, but was statistically significantly faster for 1(out of 5) tasks and had statistically significantly less errors for 1(out of 5) tasks. However, this is the first time gamification has been introduced to the Vula wiki and has been met by positive user feedback (although honesty is not assured). We believe this project to be a first step in tackling an important problem because it seems not many students do use the Vula wiki based on this research. Future extensions include improvement of game rules and general wiki functionality of the system. 1 Acknowledgements Firstly, I would like to thank my main supervisor, Professor Sonia Berman, who helped every step of the way and provided valuable feedback on my writing. Also, I am grateful for the idea of making the wiki more usable for students. I would also like to thank the co-supervisor, Mr. Stephen Marquad, for always willing to answer questions about the Vula system, of which he is the coordinator. I would also like to thank my project partner, Reitumetse Chaka, who suggested the idea of gamification, which is essential to our project solution. Furthermore, I hereby acknowledge his wonderful work ethic and timeliness in meeting deliverables. I would also like to thank Samsung for sponsoring me with a mobile phone for the duration of the project. I hereby acknowledged all the students who participated in user testing for this project, I am most grateful for the time (and even extra) that you have given me. I would also like to thank my mother for her endless sacrifices and support, as well as my late father for instilling a passion for technology in me. Likewise, I also hereby acknowledge my High School computer science teacher, Mr. Dale Mckenzie, for introducing programming to me and his constant encouragement. I would also to thank my family and friends for their support as well. Last but not least, I thank Jesus Christ, my Lord and Saviour, as I could not have done this without Him. He has given me strength, passion and much needed perseverance to finish this project. 2 Table of Contents Abstract

At the same time the development of applications is becoming increasingly complex. While web applications are commonly relying on server side processing, we aim at implementing a “fat client” and running applications mostly on the client. With this in mind we derive a set of guidelines on how the applications should be partitioned between the server and the client. By following these directives and leaning on the traditional principles of good software development, we address the issues of complexity that have lately emerged in web development. Keywords: Web Application, AJAX, JavaScript, Comet 1 Introduction Web application development is in the middle of a paradigm shift. Users are getting used to web applications with dynamic content and enhanced user experience. User interfaces are no longer updated the whole screen at a time, and servers are able to feed data to them spontaneously. From the users’ point of view, web applications are thus becoming more and more like traditional desktop applications. While the user interfaces of web applications are becoming more usable, the underlying standards and protocols are not evolving at the same pace.

    The Web as a Software Platform: Ten Years Later Antero Taivalsaari1,2 and Tommi Mikkonen2,3 1Nokia Technologies, Hatanpa¨an¨ valtatie 30, Tampere, Finland 2Department of Pervasive Computing, Tampere University of Technology, Korkeakoulunkatu 1, Tampere, Finland 3Department of Computer Science, University of Helsinki, Gustaf Hallstr¨ omin¨ katu 2b, Helsinki, Finland Keywords: Web Programming, Web Applications, Live Object Systems, JavaScript, HTML5, Lively Kernel. Abstract: In the past ten years, the Web has become a dominant deployment environment for new software systems and applications. In view of its current popularity, it is easy to forget that only 10-15 years ago hardly any developer would write serious software applications for the Web. Today, the use of the web browser as a software platform is commonplace, and JavaScript has become one of the most popular programming languages in the world. In this paper we revisit some predictions that were made over ten years ago when the Lively Kernel project was started back in 2006. Ten years later, most of the elements of the original vision have been fulfilled, although not entirely in the fashion we originally envisioned. We look back at the Lively Kernel vision, reflecting our original goals to the state of the art in web programming today. 1 INTRODUCTION devices) has exploded in recent years (Petsas et al., 2013).

The Web has changed the way we share knowledge, the way we design distributed services and applications, the way we access large volumes of data, and the way we position ourselves with our peers. Successful exploitation of web-based concepts by web communities lies on the integration of traditional data management techniques and semantic information into web- based frameworks and systems. We take here the opportunity to warmly thank all the members of the WEB 2013 Technical Program Committee, as well as the numerous reviewers. The creation of such a high quality conference program would not have been possible without their involvement. We also kindly thank all the authors who dedicated much of their time and efforts to contribute to WEB 2013. We truly believe that, thanks to all these efforts, the final conference program consisted of top quality contributions. Also, this event could not have been a reality without the support of many individuals, organizations, and sponsors.
