Abstract

This paper presents XAHM, a model for Adaptive Hypermedia Systems based on XML. We introduce a multidimensional approach to model different aspects of the adaptation process, which is based on three different "adaptivity dimensions": user's behavior (preferences and browsing activity), technology (network and user's terminal) and external environment (time, location, language, socio-political issues, etc.). An Adaptive Hypermedia is modeled with respect to such dimensions, and a view over it corresponds to each potential position of the user in the "adaptation space". Finally, we propose a probabilistic algorithm for the classification of users.
