Description
The area of intelligent and adaptive user interfaces has been of interest to the research community for a long time. Much effort has been
spent in trying to find a stable theoretical base for adaptivity in human-computer interaction and to build prototypical systems showing
features of adaptivity in “real-life” interfaces. To date research in this field has not led to a coherent view of problems, let
alone solutions. A workshop was organized, which brought together a number of well-known researchers in the area of adaptive user interfaces
with a view to
develop a coherent view of the results accomplished in the field
organize basic ideas which might lead to a more
general methodology for adaptivity in order to overcome the problem of specialized, non-generalizable solutions, and
discuss possible
areas for future research in the field and to define criteria for the selection of the most promising directions of such research.
The results of the workshop are presented in this volume. The authors have collected papers from the participants which describe both
their research and their views on questions which were dealt with during the workshop. A state-of-the-art report and taxonomy for the
field of adaptive interfaces and a discussion summary are also included in this volume.
