| Popis: | 97 Although the evolution of business models in cyberspace happens daily, it is still a basic but critical issue for enterprises to build a business website. Adopting an appropriate web architecture can effectively increase usability and maintainability, thus reduce development time and the risk of incorrect implementation. Unfriendly navigation model would lessen users' willingness of visiting the website and lower the efficiency of the website usage. However, due to lacking of approaches to measure decision factors of business goals and strategies to build websites during the phase of project planning, it could cause the difficulty of future website maintenance and extension and then could decrease the values contributing to enterprises. This research provides an analytic model of website architectures based on the concept of Multiple Criteria Decision to help web site designers choose web site navigation architectures. There are three main methods adopted in this model listed as below: 1.Using Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP) to classify the requirements and detailed factors as well as to measure the major requirements and factor weights in each website development. 2.Gathering web site requirements based on two aspects from a large number of people. One aspect is from the group of web designers dedicated to achieve the website goals. The other is from the group of website users caring about the usability. 3.Defining detailed factors and relevance between characteristics of website architectures by fuzzy theory, which can assist experts to measure website architectures in the way more closing to the reality. According to the above concepts and approaches, this research implements an system for analyzing website architectures. The system provides various user roles to perform the functions of administration, measurement and reviewing. In the view of website users and designers, they can make measurements of the usability and goals. In the view of website experts, they can measure the influence degrees of website architectures and decision factors. By using the system, web developers are able to acquire the suggestions of web site navigation architecture most fulfilling the requirements, and to shorten the development time and improve the quality of websites. |
