Abstract

Web browsing using hand-held devices is becoming more common. But the relatively small display area of hand-held devices, compared to desktop computers, requires that Web pages designed for desktops are adapted to suit hand-held devices for convenient browsing. Web page adaptation techniques for hand-held devices takes into account device's screen size, limited bandwidth and input capabilities. Although several techniques have been proposed to adapt Web pages for smaller screen, each of them is better suited for specific scenarios and requirements. Hence a better understanding of the features and limitations of these techniques are required for successful development of Web pages for mobile devices. This paper presents a concise overview and comparative evaluation of the state-of-the-art of the techniques for adapting Web pages for hand-held devices.
