Theme
Submissions are sought for a special
edition for the Hypermedia Systems theme of JoDI on Adaptive
Hypermedia.
In recent years there has been
extensive research on adaptation and personalisation in hypermedia,
and such systems are starting to make an impact upon mainstream web
design. Users have disparate expectations, backgrounds and
requirements and adaptive hypermedia systems are those that build a
profile of the user and then deliver content that is appropriate for
these needs (rather than the more traditional
“one-size-fits-all”
approach of the web). It is hoped that papers in this special issue
will describe work that addresses some of the fundamental issues of
adaptive hypermedia as well as describing real-world applications of
this technology.
Topics are likely to include (but are
not restricted to) the following:
- Applications of adaptive systems -
especially in the areas of e-learning, e-health, e-commerce and
digital libraries.
- Standards and interoperability for
adaptive hypermedia systems, and for user models.
- Metadata for adaptive hypermedia.
- Agents for adaptive hypermedia.
- Adaptive information retrieval.
- User interfaces for adaptive hypermedia, and the visualisation of
adaptation.
- Authoring for adaptive hypermedia
systems.
- User modelling for adaptive hypermedia
systems.
- Adaptation for the semantic web.
- Evaluation of adaptive systems, and of
user models.
- Adaptive systems for mobile and
ubiquitous computing
- Security and privacy aspects of
adaptive systems
We expressly invite authors of papers presented at workshops associated
with the AH2004 conference to submit extended versions of their
work. Please note - the reuse of text and illustrations published
in the AH2004
workshop proceedings (although not the main conference proceedings) is

JoDI in developing submissions that optimally illustrate the issues

requested to contact the Special issue Editors prior to submission.
All submissions will be subject to peer review. Authors of
accepted papers will be notified in July, 2005 and they will then be
able to modify their papers, with a deadline for the reciept of the
final version of the paper by 5th August, 2005.
