Content

The internet has a massive influence on our everyday life. Within a few years, we learned to solve different tasks with the help of the internet. These tasks go from searching for information to complex workflows. Therefore the world wide web and its technology gain more and more meaning for the development of interactive software systems.
Within the framework of this course, we focus on different concepts, principles, methods, and web-technologies. These fields will be discussed and introduced exemplarily during the lecture. In this module, the methods and techniques will be brought together and discussed within web projects and exercises.

The goal of that module is to introduce the students to necessary technologies for web-applications and other relevant subject areas but also to understand these things in context and get to know them by practical trials. In order to do so there will be presented some basic technologies first, such as the Internet, TCP/IP, Word Wide Web et cetera. After that, the lecture will focus on client- and server- technologies. Furthermore, some technologies concerning Ajax will be presented and practiced in interaction.
