Abstract

If an online store is to effectively acquire and retain customers, it must deliver the best possible customer experience. The key to doing this is to connect with customers at all possible touch points. The experience has to be great every time to keep customers coming back.

Given these numbers, providing a quality mobile experience is not only useful but also essential if you want to do business online. According to Criteo's 2018 annual report, retailers need to prioritise and optimise shopping apps or risk leaving money on the table.

Due to the growing number of cyber-attacks, the use of HTTPS has become widespread since 2018. This is because the previous HTTP had greater weaknesses and was not as secure. [...]

[...] They describe both the statistical structure and the dynamic behaviour of a system. -State diagrams describe the dynamic behaviour of a system in response to external stimuli. They are important for modelling reactive objects whose states are triggered by specific events. -Component diagrams: They describe the organisation of physical software components, including source code and executables. All these diagrams make it possible to reconcile user needs with the characteristics of the application to be created.
