CMS systems structure

Learning management systems are characterized by the fact that the scenarios of their operation are related to various aspects of educational activity, which in turn requires costs for the creation of professional training programs, electronic educational resources and their exploitation. These problems confirm the relevance of research aimed at developing models of life cycles for electronic educational resources, programs and qualification levels of specialists, as well as at creating effective tools for automated management of the learning process. The purpose of this study is to optimize the life cycles of electronic educational resources, training programs, employer requirements and increase efficiency in managing the continuous process of training specialists. Analytical studies of life cycle models of electronic educational content, learning and educational activity management systems, content management systems were carried out in the work in order to select and develop tools for automated design and filling of educational resources, as well as synthesis of the life cycle management system of its main components. Models of the life cycles of the main components of the educational environment have been developed, which allow for their coordination and optimization for the system of automated management of training processes and professional development. Distinctive features of the models are the comprehensive synchronization of the life cycles of all components with the assessment of the effectiveness of this process, as well as adjustment to the changing requirements of the external environment. A model for synchronizing the life cycles of the components of the educational environment, including electronic educational content and a system for managing learning and professional development processes, has been developed. A feature of the model is a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of the synchronization process at all its stages for the automated selection and/or synthesis of personalized training programs and electronic resources in accordance with the changing requirements of standards and employers.

The current number of mobile Internet users has far exceeded the number of PC Internet users.The construction of college mobile website is behind the PC website.An innovative idea which integrates mobile website and computer website into one system was proposed.Content management technology is used in the system.The system which mobile website and computer website integrates into college online content management system is developed.It allows colleges and universities to build the mobile and computer website at the same time.The construction and management of integration meets the needs of smartphone and computer access.The system would enhance the level of college information. Concept of College Content Management SystemContent Management System has back-office systems or processes between software systems.Content Management System focused on solving a variety of unstructured or semi-structured collection of digital resources.It can be integrated into structured data organic business intelligence environments, such as OA, CRM, etc. Content creators, editors, publishers use content management system to submit, and publish content.The "content" may include all information files, tables, pictures, and data in the database or video.Content Management System is used in college website building software industry establishment.College website content management system can simplify the construction, management and maintenance.The basic idea is to achieve the appearance and content of the separation and management.Content Management System is stored in a database or file system.The appearance of the page is to use a template to achieve.When a user requests a page, the page has a standard HTML page provided to the user.To browse through the use of templates, administrators only need to modify the template and feel of the site adjustment.Managers can focus on content design, and greatly simplify site management and maintenance.

Internet has become priceless tool that enables corporate world to show their capabilities. While Web applications have gained importance on the Internet, security is the only thing to worry. Business data is very critical that floats on the cloud and that's why Web Application Security is rapidly becoming a growing concern for all enterprises. In this paper we tried to show what is Hacking and its symptoms. In web development Content Management System (CMS) is gaining so much popularity as it uses to make easy editing and publishing process for novice even if he doesn't know web programming. There are over thousand of open source CMS available in the market. When we just talk about content management concept two or three names like Joomla, Drupal and WordPress strike in mind. As these are the one of the best CMSs in the market and their community provides nice basic security still we want to compare these CMS and want to know which CMS provides best security. To do the comparison we have done two case studies. In case 1 we have developed one common page in all CMS and host it then after we have applied different web attacks like SQLi, XSS, CSRF etc. and derived their hacking results. In case 2 we used Acunetix WVS Reporter v6.0 to find out the strength of security in different CMS. Apart from this we also try to find out Broken links in all listed CMSs.

Most organizations that consider the online channel to be central to their strategy use a Content Management System (CMS) for their website, intranet or extranet. The CMS is a company asset that has perhaps been overlooked as a source of competitive advantage. This article examines the benefits of using a CMS, and considers the needs of different stakeholders and some of the common pitfalls that organizations encounter. It goes on to consider how a CMS investment may not be delivering for your organization or where you are being locked into a poor investment. We examine some of the critical success factors when implementing a CMS, and consider how to escape a CMS dead end. We look at investment in a CMS, what good content management means for the business and protecting an investment while meeting online business needs — moving on to how leveraging a proven CMS can help shape strategy. Finally, we consider the CMS as a platform, and how it could help organizations use the web in challenging times and even give them a competitive advantage.

An intelligent content strategy for the enterprise

The explosion of the Internet and e-business in recent years has caused a secondary explosion in the amounts and types of information available to enterprise applications. Industry analysts predict that more data will be generated in the next three years than in all of recorded history. Because the adoption of Internet-based business transaction models has significantly outpaced the development of tools and technologies to deal with the information explosion, many businesses find their systems breaking under the sheer volume and diversity of data being directed at them. The challenge facing businesses today is information integration. Enterprise applications must interact with databases, application servers, content management systems, data warehouses, workflow systems, search engines, message queues, Web crawlers, mining and analysis packages, and other enterprise integration applications. They must use a variety of programming interfaces and understand a variety of languages and formats. They must extract and combine data in multiple formats generated by multiple delivery mechanisms. Clearly, the boundaries that have traditionally existed between database management systems, content management systems, midtier caches, data warehouses, and other data management systems are blurring, and there is a great need for a platform that provides a unified view of all of these services and the data they deliver.

Content Management Systems (CMS) are widely adopted commodity applications today. Well-established implementations exist since many years, both commercial and Open Source, e.g. WordPress or Drupal. In consequence, research on CMS has strongly declined since its peak more than a decade ago. However, in recent years new trends for building and running large-scale web applications emerged, such as Node.js, microservice architectures and containerization, while most established CMS still use a traditional monolithic architecture. This rises the question how these emerging new technologies will challenge those established CMS implementations. Therefore, in this paper a microservice architecture for an examplified e-business CMS is proposed, and a Proof-of-Concept implementation is described. The approach is evaluated with respect to its feasibility using a qualitative empirical study. Results indicate that the approach is well-suited for building more state-of-the-art CMS in the near future, which are likely to challenge the position of the traditional monolithic implementations.

This study evaluated a WebCT course content management (CCMS) system at the University of Botswana. Survey methodology was used and questionnaires were distributed to 503 students selected from six faculties, and an in-depth interview were conducted involving (20) twenty lecturers who teach via the WebCT platform. Findings reveal that, generally, WebCT CCMS is doing well at the University of Botswana and that the system has been a success. The results also confirm the quality of course materials uploaded on the system, that is, service quality and the quality of the teaching and learning via the system. Furthermore, by learning through WebCT, students are able to self regulate their learning and, given the opportunity, they are ready to use and continue learning using the WebCT platform. Results also indicate that generally students are satisfied with the performance of WebCT and that there are many benefits associated with the system in context to teaching and learning at the university. Problems associated with WebCT CCMS that are experienced by staff and students of the University include access, network /server failure, lack of link between ITS and WebCT, lack of teaching expertise using WebCT, and failure to remove completed courses from the system.

Content management systems (CMSs) such as Joomla and WordPress dominate today’s web. Enabled by standardized extensions, administrators can build powerful web applications for diverse customer demands. However, developing CMS extensions requires sophisticated technical knowledge, and the complex code structure of an extension gives rise to errors during typical development and migration scenarios. Model-driven development (MDD) seems to be a promising paradigm to address these challenges; however, it has not found adoption in the CMS domain yet. Systematic evidence of the benefit of applying MDD in this domain could facilitate its adoption; however, an empirical investigation of this benefit is currently lacking. In this paper, we present a mixed-method empirical investigation of applying MDD in the CMS domain, based on an interview suite, a controlled experiment, a field experiment, and case studies. During the experiments, we used JooMDD, an MDD infrastructure instantiation for CMS extensions. This infrastructure, which is also presented in this work, consists of a DSL with model editors, code generators, and reverse engineering facilities. We consider three scenarios of developing new (both independent and dependent) CMS extensions and of migrating existing ones to a new major platform version. The experienced developers in our interviews acknowledge the relevance of these scenarios and report on experiences that render them suitable candidates for a successful application of MDD. We found a particularly high relevance of the migration scenario. Our experiments largely confirm the potentials and limits of MDD as identified for other domains. In particular, we found a productivity increase up to factor 11.7 and a quality increase up to factor 2.4 during the development of CMS extensions. Furthermore, our observations highlight the importance of good tooling that seamlessly integrates with already used tool environments and processes.

This study focused on the state that CMS(Content Management System) is not widely implemented in Korea and many companies lack a sense of the necessity. The author proceeded as follows. First of all, the definition of CMS was mentioned. Next, the history and current state of CMS in domestic and foreign nations were proposed. And the methodology and rationales were explained to use CMS effectively. The results may be summarized as follows. First, the appropriate design should be processed. Second, value-oriented management (not technology-oriented) should be aimed. Third, feedback by publicity and responses should be activated. When a content provider adopts CMS, the provider should take special care of long-term communications and trust building with non-technical users.

This chapter highlights how a graduate program in library science structured a university’s course management system to address the data gathering and document demands of accreditation. While examples in the literature revealed creative uses of content and course management systems, none specifically demonstrated ways to build a digital repository of accreditation materials. Design features of the course management system were found similar to content management systems but with distinct advantages. While both types of programs could address document storage without having to create separate Websites and to acquire dedicated Web servers, the course management system offers a way to communicate with colleagues, presents a mechanism to integrate specialized surveys within selected courses, and provides a way to compile and to save results from any survey or assessment technique. Faculty note ongoing challenges stemming from the use of a course management system but acknowledge viable solutions.

Most of the enterprises are using web application for communicating with their customers, partners, shareholders and others. Additionally the web applications are used to carry out commercial activities and business transactions. As web applications are extensively used, its operating environment plays an important role which determines its efficiency. Nowadays cloud has proved to be one of the best operating environments for deploying web applications because of its features like automatic load balancing, scalability, maintenance and cost. As the demand is increasing for cloud computing, many organizations are looking for cloud based software to reduce their deployment cost and server maintenance overhead. The existing web application like individual/corporate websites, CRM/ERP applications, E-Publishing, E-Government, E-Commerce and E-Learning are slowly migrating to cloud. On the other hand managing the content of such web applications is a tedious task. The Content Management Systems (CMS) has already proved to be a good choice for developing web applications which ensures rapid application development and ease of use. CMS allows even a non-technical user to create, edit, manage and publish the content easily. When CMS is coupled with cloud the resultant application is highly efficient and easily manageable. In this paper we have proposed a new technique to develop cloud based software using content management systems.

In the modern world, the absence of a business website means loss of a significant share of the tentative market. A business website helps businesses become round the clock accessible to the world. In the past, website development required a significant amount of time, computing knowledge, and skills. Content Management System (CMS) is a new website creation toolkit to address these problems. A CMS converts the complex process of website development into a simple workflow. A CMS requires no prior knowledge/experience and significantly reduces the time of developing a website. Today, many CMS platforms are available for users. This increase in the number of CMS platforms has made it difficult for a user to choose the best one. The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive comparison of the available CMS platforms. This study performs a comparison of the three most popular CMS platforms (i.e. WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal) using a comprehensive set of criteria. For this purpose, a convenient sample of 110 students from the Computer Science Department and Management Sciences Department was used. These students had used one or more of the CMS platforms to develop websites. The results reveal that WordPress is the dominating CMS platform due to its technical capabilities and ease of use.

Model-driven engineering has become the emerging standard for software development focusing on the use of models as first-class citizens. One possible field of application of such model-driven approaches can be the open source Content Management Systems (CMS) domain. Typically, CMS are built using the source-code-oriented software development process raising issues related to usability, performance and other qualities of service in an application’s lifecycle. To overcome these issues, the use of model-driven approaches in the development of CMS-based web applications (WAs) can be particular beneficial.To this end, we propose a model-driven reverse engineering approach for automatic mining of the conceptual model of existing WAs developed using the widely used CMS Joomla! by applying data mining techniques. This methodology can be used to form the cornerstone of an evaluation framework for Joomla!-based WAs either in the design or maintenance process.
