Abstract
Three-level architectures were proved to be useful for developing applications. However, three levels are insufficient to provide a high level of customizability and code reuse. In this paper, a further subdivision of each level into sublevels is proposed, which provides the development of customizable components for each sublevel. The implementation of a six-level architecture of Internet application frameworks in the so-called AFW system showed the validity of this approach.
