Description: Unfortunately, the limitations of the existing Web infrastructure mean that purely event-based user interaction is unsuitable within Web applications. Nevertheless, the authors believe that integrating event-based user interaction in certain parts of a large Web application will have positive effects if a suitable architecture is used. In this paper, they explore an architecture that accommodates a partial integration of an event-driven user interface and hides some of the ad hoc Web infrastructure. They also suggest ways in which event based interaction can be incorporated within a Web application framework such as J2EE. Author(s) : Weiquan Zhao, David Kearney and Gianpaolo Gioiosa
