Online social networks
help to connect with
friends attending to
preferences or interests,
or to organize social
activities.
Companies and brands
interact with clients
through experts called
social media managers

Introduction
Our goal
4
We observe a growing need to automate social
activities.

Users may wish to dene simple applications
involving the participation of a community.

Companies may like to open their information
systems to OSN platforms, but the integration
effort needs to be done by hand.

Introduction
Users: who designs
We want to assist users with
technical skills that they could
be or not experts or IT
specialists.
For example, marketing
specialists frequently use
languages like HTML.

Introduction
Benefits of Online Social
Networks
They offer a clear and stable interface and OSNs based
on short, instant messages, are suitable as front-end
for computer applications.

OSN are designed to support a high load of users and
posts and many people are familiar with specic OSNs
and have it already installed in their devices.

Applications can leverage from the social network
structure provided by the OSN platform.

Conclusions
We have introduced the concept of post-
based applications; applications whose inputs
and outputs are extracted and produced from
OSNs.

We have shown some scenarios where those
apps are useful and demonstrated the viability
of the idea with a prototype.

We have discuss about the use of the
languages by non-technical experts.

Future Work
Evaluation

We would like to increase the expressiveness
of our pattern DSL. Nowadays our DSLs are
very generic. We are improving our action
language with new primitives (e.g. presenting
outputs in charts or maps).

Deployment mode and web-based version of
the tool.
