Abstract

Adaptation technologies deal with tailoring content to particular users or groups of users. On the one hand, they are concerned with selecting and reformatting content for certain tasks. On the other hand, these technologies offer choices for rendering that content in a way appropriate to the target audience. This chapter briefly surveys such technologies, discusses their relevance to knowledge management, and points out related issues.
