May 29-31, 2002 @ Málaga (Spain)
In cooperation with ACM (SIGWEB, SIGIR, SIGART, SIGCHI, and SIGECOM), AEPIA, ECCAI and EUNITE
Endorsed by IW3C2
The 2nd International Conference on Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web Based Systems will be held in Málaga, Spain, May 29-31, 2002. The AH'2002 Conference continues from AH2000 held in Trento, Italy (http://ah2000.itc.it/) and a series of successful workshops on the topic of adaptive hypermedia and adaptive Web-based applications (http://wwwis.win.tue.nl/ah/proceedings.html).
