Configuring the Webpage Content through Conditional Constraints and Preferences

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 8482))

Abstract

Configuring the webpage content to reflect the user desires is highly demanded in the era of personalization. The problem can be viewed as a preference-based constraint problem including a set of components forming the webpage along with the preferences. Our goal is then to locate each of these components such that the user preferences are maximized. Additionally, constraints might exist between different components of the given page. We investigate the problem of handling the web page content based on user preferences and constraints. Unlike previous attempts, we model the constraint part as an instance of the conditional CSP. This gives further expressive power to handle different relations among components. The preferences are expressed through the well-known CP-Nets graphical model.
