    Client-Side Cornucopia: Comparing the Built-In Application Architecture Models in the Web Browser Antero Taivalsaari1, Tommi Mikkonen2, Cesare Pautasso3, and Kari Syst¨a4, 1Nokia Bell Labs, Tampere, Finland 2University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland 3University of Lugano, Lugano, Swizerland 4Tampere University, Tampere, Finland [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. The programming capabilities of the Web can be viewed as an afterthought, designed originally by non-programmers for relatively simple scripting tasks. This has resulted in cornucopia of partially over- lapping options for building applications. Depending on one's viewpoint, a generic standards-compatible web browser supports three, four or five built-in application rendering and programming models. In this paper, we give an overview and comparison of these built-in client-side web ap- plication architectures in light of the established software engineering principles. We also reflect on our earlier work in this area, and provide an expanded discussion of the current situation. In conclusion, while the dominance of the base HTML/CSS/JS technologies cannot be ignored, we expect Web Components and WebGL to gain more popularity as the world moves towards increasingly complex web applications, including systems supporting virtual and augmented reality. Keywords|Web programming, single page web applications, web com- ponents, web application architectures, rendering engines, web rendering, web browser 1 Introduction The World Wide Web has become such an integral part of our lives that it is often forgotten that the Web has existed only about thirty years. The original design sketches related to the World Wide Web date back to the late 1980s.

Received: 30 October 2020; Accepted: 5 December 2020; Published: 10 December 2020 Abstract: Recently, the use of extended reality (XR) systems has been on the rise, to tackle various domains such as training, education, safety, etc. With the recent advances in augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) technologies and ease of availability of high-end, commercially available hardware, the manufacturing industry has seen a rise in the use of advanced XR technologies to train its workforce. While several research publications exist on applications of XR in manufacturing training, a comprehensive review of recent works and applications is lacking to present a clear progress in using such advance technologies. To this end, we present a review of the current state-of-the-art of use of XR technologies in training personnel in the field of manufacturing. First, we put forth the need of XR in manufacturing. We then present several key application domains where XR is being currently applied, notably in maintenance training and in performing assembly task.

In this context, museums have already embraced new technologies as part of their exhibitions, many of them featuring augmented or virtual reality artifacts. The presented work proposes the synthesis of augmented, virtual and mixed reality technologies to provide unified X-Reality experiences in realistic virtual museums, engaging visitors in an interactive and seamless fusion of physical and virtual worlds that will feature virtual agents exhibiting naturalistic behavior. Visitors will be able to interact with the virtual agents, as they would with real world counterparts. The envisioned approach is expected to not only provide refined experiences for museum visitors, but also achieve high quality entertainment combined with more effective knowledge acquisition.
