چکیده
The paper describes a nomadic guide that considers the context of use (CoU) for information selection and presentation. A nomadic system is defined by continuous access to information spaces independent from specific devices. The CoU is defined by the location and characteristics of the user. Interests of the user deduced from the navigation in the physical and information space are the main goal of information adaptation in the paper. A prototype of a nomadic system that adapts the information to the user needs is presented.
