Designing an Adaptive Virtual Guide for Web Applications

چکیده
Most applications accessible through the Web suffer from a noticeable lack of support for adapting to the different information needs that different users may have regarding a certain topic. However, completely automatic adaptive support can still be confusing for users who may not understand the reasons for the dynamic change in the behaviour of an application. In this paper, we present a possible solution to provide adaptive support that does not disorient the user. Such a solution integrates a virtual assistant able to provide adaptive support in an adaptable application. We discuss an example of application of this approach to support Web visits to museum information.

متن کاملDesigning an Agent to Support Interactive Access to Museum Information
If we consider most applications accessible through the Web, we can notice a lack of support able to adapt to the different information needs that different users may have regarding a certain topic. Adaptive support, by which an application provides different information taking into account the users’ interactions, can provide useful assistance. However, completely automatic adaptive support ca...
متن کاملDesigning a Robust Control Scheme for Robotic Systems with an Adaptive Observer
This paper introduces a robust task-space control scheme for a robotic system with an adaptive observer. The proposed approach does not require the availability of the system states and an adaptive observer is developed to estimate the state variables. These estimated states are then used in the control scheme. First, the dynamic model of a robot is derived. Next, an observer-based robust contr...
متن کاملDesign and Evaluation of a Method for Partitioning and Offloading Web-based Applications in Mobile Systems with Bandwidth Constraints
Computation offloading is known to be among the effective solutions of running heavy applications on smart mobile devices. However, irregular changes of a mobile data rate have direct impacts on code partitioning when offloading is in progress. It is believed that once a rate-adaptive partitioning performed, the replication of such substantial processes due to bandwidth fluctuation can be avoid...
متن کاملDesigning a new robust control for virtual inertia control in the microgrid with regard to virtual damping
Background and Objectives: Virtual inertia control, as a component of a virtual synchronous generator, is used for the implementation of synchronous generator behaviour in microgrids. In microgrids that include high-capacity distributed generation resources, in addition to virtual inertia, virtual damping can also lead to improvement of frequency stability of the microgrid. The purpose of the c...
