This book describes techniques for designing and building adaptive user interfaces developed in the large AID project undertaken by the contributors.
- Describes one of the few large-scale adaptive interface projects in the world
- Outlines the principles of adaptivity in human-computer interaction
An adaptive computer interface changes its behaviour to suit the individual or group using it. This can range from an interface which changes font to suit the preference of a user to an interface which builds and evaluates a model of the user inorder to improve the effectiveness of communication between the computer and the user.
