Improving the model view controller paradigm in the web

By: Contributor(s): Material type: ArticleArticleDescription: 1 archivo (481,6 KB)Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: Nowadays, web applications have changed from static, information-based web pages to dynamic, service-oriented software. As they evolved, these web applications started to show features that used to appear only in desktops applications. We have reached a point in connection speed and browser maturity where there is only one thing preventing the next big step: the ability of web servers to send information to the client without a previous request. In this paper, we present Meteoroid, a framework that allows a system running in the server to send information to web browsers without a client request. On top of this functionality we have built a full model-view-controller protocol, allowing us to create web applications that completely mimic desktop ones.
