Abstract

In this paper we present a model for User Model (UM) interoperability among feature-based adaptive applications on the Web. In order to enhance the interaction capabilities of such systems, we propose to exploit Web standards for interoperability, i.e. Web Services technologies and Semantic Web languages, together with negotiation techniques based on dialogue.Our model is based on a Service Oriented Architecture(SOA), where a central UDDI registry, enhanced with UM specific capabilities, can be used to support the cooperation between user-adaptive applications. The proposed framework support a discovery mechanism, a simple request/response-based pattern of communication and a dialogue model.
