Description
The Internet is transforming its look, in a short span of time we have come very far from black and white web forms with plain buttons to responsive, colorful and appealing user interface elements. With the sudden rise in demand of web applications, developers are making full use of the power of HTML5, JavaScript and CSS3 to cater to their users on various platforms. There was never a need of classifying the ways in which these languages can be interconnected to each other as the size of the front end code base was relatively small and did not involve critical business logic. This thesis focuses on listing and defining all dependencies between HTML5, JavaScript and CSS3 that will help developers better understand the interconnections within these languages. We also explore the present techniques available to a developer to make his code free of dependency related defects. We build a prototype tool, HJCDepend, based on our model, which aims at helping developers discover and remove defects early in the development cycle.

Description
The modern web presents an opportunity for educators and researchers to create tools that are highly accessible. Because of the near-ubiquity of modern web browsers, developers who hope to create educational and analytical tools can reach a large au- dience by creating web applications. Using JavaScript, HTML, and other modern web development technologies, Genie was developed as a simulator to help educators in biology, genetics, and evolution classrooms teach their students about population genetics. Because Genie was designed for the modern web, it is highly accessible to both educators and students, who can access the web application using any modern web browser on virtually any device. Genie demonstrates the efficacy of web devel- opment technologies for demonstrating and simulating complex processes, and it will be a unique educational tool for educators who teach population genetics.
