The Significance of Importance of an Architectural Pattern for AJAX Based Rich Internet Applications

Abstract

AJAX is a popular and powerful script-based technique for developing Rich Internet Applications in the era of WEB2. Despite its strength, AJAX is suffering from difficulties because of various complexities. If we can identify the root cause of these reasons and address the complexities, we can minimize the difficulties in the AJAX based Rich Internet Applications engineering and produce quality products faster by incorporating the Rapid Application Development methodology. In our ongoing research, we try to identify the complexity factors of AJAX based Rich Internet Application engineering and provide the solution(s) to formalise a standard platform. We have understood the importance of having a standard architectural formalism for AJAX based Rich Internet Applications and in this paper we discuss about the significance of having a specialized architectural pattern for AJAX based Rich Internet Applications, which we think is essential in addressing the complexities in Rich Internet Application engineering and support the Rapid Application Development adequate.
