The Web Goes Mobile: Can we Keep the Pace?

The Internet, respectively the applications and services known as the Web, is undergoing significant changes. Mobile communication has enabled us with an omnipresent access to the Web, technologies such as grid computing and Web services allow us to use the Web far beyond its initial intention of document and information sharing, and intelligent agents and semantic systems aim to automate the tasks and better support us in interacting with the Web. Considering all those advances, one might ask the question how users can keep pace with all those developments and more specifically, how technology itself can help us in keeping pace. In this paper we investigate context aware adaptation and personalization as potential solutions.
