Bridging Navigation, Search and Adaptation - Adaptive Hypermedia Models Evolution

چکیده
Adaptive Hypermedia Systems (AHS) have long been concentrating on adaptive guidance of links between domain concepts. In this paper we first study parallels between navigation and linking in hypertext on the one hand and information searching or querying on the other hand. We show that to a large extent linking and searching can be modeled in the same way. Secondly we present a transition towards search in AHS by aligning the web search process with the layered structure of AHS and link adaptation process. In the end we sketch the on-going implementation of an open corpus adaptation carried out in the context of the ’Grapple’ adaptive e-learning environment.

Evolutionary authoring tool for adaptive hypermedia with multimodal navigation
This paper discusses the importance of user adaptation and software evolution in hypermedia applications, and reviews some of the most relevant approaches to both fields. The paper describes a model that has been conceived for the development, maintenance and navigation of adaptive hypermedia systems. This model, called SEM-HP, includes an incremental design process, a layered architecture and ...
متن کاملAdaptive navigation support in educational hypermedia: the role of student knowledge level and the case for meta-adaptation
Adaptive hypermedia is an alternative to the traditional “one-size-fits-all” approach in the development of hypermedia systems. Adaptive hypermedia (AH) systems build a model of the goals, preferences, and knowledge of each individual user, and use this model throughout the interaction with the user, in order to adapt to the needs of that user. Adaptive navigation support is a specific group of...
متن کاملBridging versioning and adaptive hypermedia in the dynamic web
Web Dynamics has been recently considered in the context of the analysis of how people search and re-search information on the web. There are lots of challenges and opportunities when considering user behaviour. In this paper we propose the way to tackle some of them by applying versioning methodologies (as a backend solution) in the context of content changes, user re-visitations and re-search...
متن کاملApplying software evolution theory to hypermedia systems
Environments on the web should support high-level hypermedia features to improve their key challenges: searching, navigation, adaptation and maintenance of hyperdocuments. In this paper, we show the benefits of applying software evolution theory to Hypermedia Systems (HSs) and, in order to face these challenges we propose the Semantic and Evolutionary Model for HyPermedia systems (SEM-HP) model...
متن کاملGAL: A Generic Adaptation Language for describing Adaptive Hypermedia
Nowadays, Web applications have become more sophisticated and interactive, and many of them also offer personalization and adaptation as their features. The mechanisms for these features are typically built on top of specific adaptive engine that has its own engine-specific adaptation language that can be very different from other engines. However, our observation leads to the fact that the mai...
