Active Server Pages (ASP) is the scripting interface to Internet Information Server (IIS), which is the web server for more than 1 million web sites. UML is a widely-accepted standard for modelling software in the design phase, prior to any coding.The challenge of putting together even a workaday ASP application is now comparable to a traditional software project. Unfortunately, distributed application programmers have never had methodology or access to the traditional and established modeling tools for software engineers. Until now, modeling a site's complete architecture was simply not possible. This book is about putting together a total technical model for how a business or service will transfer its activities to the net.
Developers will use the model as a blueprint to actually put the code and components together. This book uses the commonly accepted language of modeling, UML, to plan and execute distributed apps.
