Abstract
The Software Engineering Body of Knowledge (SWEBOK) is an IEEE-led project that provides an explicit characterization of the boundaries of software engineering. Inspired by SWEBOK, this paper proposes the formulation of a Web Engineering Body of Knowledge (WEBOK), an effort similar to SWEBOK for the Web engineering domain. The main goal of WEBOK development will be the explicit characterization of the boundaries of Web engineering. In addition, WEBOK will identify the areas of Web engineering more closely related to software engineering, and others that have evolved from software engineering principles. Finally, WEBOK will identify some areas of Web engineering where further research is necessary. Due to the great effort represented by WEBOK development, this paper presents a limited version of this with two purposes: (i) to serve as a first step towards WEBOK; and (ii) to promote the total development of WEBOK by the Web engineering community.
