Abstract

This paper describes research to enable appropriate knowledge to be automatically delivered to the right people at the right time at the right level of detail via a range of user devices (laptop PC, mobile telephone, wireless e-mail client, hand-held PC, etc). We describe a framework that integrates device profiles with user preference profiles and accessibility requirements to provide effective knowledge delivery to a range of end-user devices. The framework has two components -- an ontology of device and user profiles, and a content adaptation engine for presenting information to the user in a suitable format.
