whitepaper Functionalism: A New Approach to Web Analytics2006-11-02 01:00:17 SEMphonic
  Despite dramatic improvements in the reporting and measurement capabilities of common web analytic tools, the actual practice of web measurement has not shown similar advances. The results of many analytic efforts are disappointing, and the usefulness of web measurement to an organization is still very dependent on having an outstanding individual practitioner. What is more, the practice of web measurement revolves around the usage of a disparate grab-bag of tools (pathing, page analysis, affinity, segmentation, events) with no particularly clear understanding of when, how or why a tool is the most appropriate choice.   
whitepaper Rich Internet Applications: Design, Measurement, and Management Challenges2006-06-27 Keynote Systems
  The Web is already the platform for doing business efficiently and quickly. As the penetration of high-speed and broadband Internet access increases, Web technologies continue to evolve to deliver new user experiences and increased application utility. The Rich Internet Application (RIA) is another step in that evolutionary process. The Rich Internet Application reflects the gradual but inevitable transition of Web applications from the simple thin-client model of a traditional Web browser to a richer distributed-function model that behaves more like the desktop in a client/server model. Nowadays these richer user experiences are being implemented with technologies such as Flash, Ajax, and Java, using standard Internet and Web protocols.

whitepaper Authoring E-Learning Content for WebCT Vista With Macromedia Dreamweaver 82006-06-02 Adobe Systems
  Learning Management Systems (LMS's) have become important tools for managing learning content in academic settings. While these systems excel in distributing and structuring learning content, however, they offer few options for page creation, incorporating only limited HTML editors. Faculty have solved this problem by turning to the Macromedia suite of web design tools, which supplement the LMS with full-featured design environments for creating compelling learning content. The LMS extension for Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 enables WebCT Vista users to develop sophisticated content using Dreamweaver's rich feature set and then deploy this content directly to WebCT Vista. This paper provides an overview of the benefits of using Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 to author content for WebCT Vista, along with an overview of the steps in the content-authoring process.

whitepaper Remodeling a Standard Store Into the Extended Sites Model With WebSphere Commerce Business Edition V5.6.12006-04-11 IBM
  WebSphere Commerce customers are beginning to understand the value of the Extended Sites architecture over the traditional single store design. As a result, there is a lot of client interest in upgrading current sites to the new Extended Sites infrastructure where data is easily shared and managed. This type of site upgrade is different from the typical release-to-release migration where a set of automated tools performs most of the work. Site re-modeling is the term used for the process of upgrading an existing site to the new Extended Sites infrastructure. This paper describes the required process of re-modelling from the direct models into the Extended Sites infrastructure. This can also help determine the effort involved in such migrations.
