Abstract

We formulate an approach to adaptively structuring content for access via mobile devices, based on finding a global minimum of a cost function. The approach accounts for variations in communication channels, end-user device capabilities and user profiles, and can be easily extended to meet additional requirements by adding new terms to the cost function. In addition, we outline a simulated annealing algorithm for maintaining personalised views of a web site with continuously updated content.
