Abstract
End-user development (EUD) is receiving increasing attention, due to the necessity of frequent extensions and personalizations of applications. In particular, EUDWeb technologies have focused on the support of web development tasks which are generally perceived to be complex by end-user developers. However an area of neglect within current EUDWeb environments is the support for the specification and implementation of access control, although it is perceived as a particularly complex task. Thus, in this paper we propose an EUDWeb approach and tool for the specification and generation of web applications embedding access control mechanisms. We extended a previous mockup-based EUDWeb approach by introducing visual assistance mechanisms enabling the specification of role-based access control policies and their plugging within the application logic.
