service to the client applications. Such standalone adaptation provider reduces the development
 
of adaptation functionality to configuration and compliance and as a result creates new adaptive
 
systems faster and helps serve larger user populations with adaptively accessible content. [[http://washington.sis.pitt.edu/comet/presentColloquium.do?col_id=777 details]]
