This page is a tentative home for an anticipated workshop on Architectures of Adaptive Hypermedia Systems. Its main purpose is to maintain awareness of the workshop organization process.

Choosing The Right Name And Focus

Most recent first

  • Framework/infrastructure issues in [distributed/component-based] adaptive hypermedia systems (Michael)
    • Infrastructure Issues In Adaptive Hypermedia Systems - IIIAHS - cool abbreviation :) logo ideas
  • Architectures and Approaches for Personalization and Adaptation (Eelco) - not just architectures, but also approaches to personalization
  • Architectures of [distributed] [component-based] personalized/user-adaptive systems (Peter)
  • Architectures of Adaptive Hypermedia Systems - too restrictive?

Related Work

  • Scalability Issues in AIED Workshop at AIED 2009, Brighton, United Kingdom
  • DAH’09: International Workshop on Dynamic and Adaptive Hypertext: Generic Frameworks, Approaches

and Techniques

Topics

To include (address, be aware, or relate to)

  • CMS and AS: striking the right balance while separating the two, ways to implement "hooks"/callbacks on CMS for connecting to AS
  • metadata for content: self-aware content (knows own metadata) vs. agnostic content
  • UM - AS: one-to-many and many-to-one
    • mapping/conversion/exchange of UMs
    • cross-system modeling
    • cross-domain generalization
    • standardizing UM representation
  • user interface considerations of AS
    • manifested UI (changing the UI) vs. hidden
    • scopes of most effective applicability of the two
  • framework/architecture/infrastructure implementation
    • ubiquity of infrastructure (extravert approach, third-party services) vs. utility (tradeoffs of introvert approach)
    • infrastructure "penetration" thresholds
    • existence of standards
    • applicability scopes of approaches
  • case studies and lessons learned

Not to include

  • yet-another-[pseudo-]architecture

Vocabulary

  • content management system (CMS), aka Web CMS (WCMS) - users' entry point, the portal, the content aggregator
  • user model (UM), aka user modeling server/service (UMS)
  • adaptation service (AS), aka personalization service (PService), aka adaptive functionality (AF)
  • content, aka materials, aka resources
  • [domain] vocabulary, aka [domain] ontology - [structured] set of concepts, describing items of content
  • [content] metadata - [weighted] list of domain concepts describing content item

Host conference(s)

UMAP 2010?

Participants AKA Co-organizers

(and maybe more)
