User-oriented adaptivity and adaptability in the AVANTI project

Visitors of web sites are generally heterogeneous and have different needs. The aim of the AVANTI project is to cater to these individual needs by adapting the content and the presentation of web pages to each individual user. The special needs of elderly and handicapped users are also partly considered. A model of the characteristics of user groups and individual users and a domain model are exploited in the adaptation process.
