Abstract

To reduce the user-perceived latency in web content delivery, many techniques have been proposed. One is a transmission time control mechanism that automatically adjusts the quality of inline objects, such as images on a web page, according to the client network bandwidth. Another is a transmission order control mechanism that can transmit inline objects in a specified order preferred by users. In this paper, we describe the development of a user adaptive content delivery mechanism that integrates transmission time control and transmission order control. Based on the user's preference profile, it dynamically prioritizes inline objects in terms of content quality and delivery order, and provides user with adapted inline objects. A prototype system has been implemented in Java, and gives an example of adapted content delivery.
