    International Conference on Computer Science and Information Technology (ICCSIT'2011) Pattaya Dec. 2011 Evaluating Presentation Layer Development Frameworks for EJB Applications in J2EE Architecture Ohm Samkoses, Dipl. -Inform. Matthias Vianden, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Horst Lichter gathering and analysis, multiple rounds of frameworks Abstract—For medium to large organizations, information selection with different criteria, prototype implementations, systems play an important role for information storage and retrieval. and results evaluation. The chosen frameworks for prototype They are used to support business processes such as decision-making. development should fulfill most of the requirement and the In information systems, huge amountof data needs to be manipulated prototypes implementation should reflect the solution for each and visualized. One way to handle this complexity is to use Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) [1] in a J2EE architecture. Since EJB has requirement clearly, and must be able to work with the not been designed to work in the Presentation Layer, suitable existing system's environment: the back-end is managed by Presentation Layer Development frameworks are introduced to EJB 3.0, and IBM Websphere Application Server 7.0. enhanced thepresentation layer of the information systems. The MeDIC (Metric Definition Integration Calculation) system and XAM II. TASKS / STEPS (eXam Assignment and Management) system [2] are typical representatives of such information system. A. First frameworks selection Nowadays, many frameworks, such as Java Server Faces (JSF), First step was to narrow-down the scope of the focused Wicket, and Tapestry, exist to cover the Presentation Layer. They framework based mainly on framework popularity. Other provide a variety of features and architecture enhancements.
