Third International Conference on Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-Based Systems

AH'2004

August 23-26, 2004 Eindhoven (The Netherlands)

The AH conferences are the major forums for the scientific exchange and presentation of research on adaptive hypermedia and adaptive web-based systems. In 2004, the third International Conference on Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-Based Systems will take place at the Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands, August 23 - 26. This conference follows two very successful conferences held in Trento, Italy in 2000 and Malagà, Spain in 2002.

In the context of the World Wide Web as well as in Hypermedia, adaptation and personalization functionalities prove increasingly important for a variety of applications, including e-commerce systems, learning environments, tourist information systems, interactive TV and many more. To provide these functionalities, an interesting mix of techniques from quite a few different areas is needed, and AH 2004 will once again be an exciting opportunity to bring these areas together and promote substantial cross-fertilization of ideas, projects and researchers.

The conference site, the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), is one of the leading technological universities in the world (often ranked in the top 10). It offers masters and engineering degrees and educates around 5.000 students. The Computer Science Department hosts the Adaptive Hypertext and Hypermedia Homepage, the Adaptive Hypermedia Mailing List. Eindhoven is a highly technologically oriented city, home of not only the university but also Philips Research and a large technology college. The TU/e owns an excellent conference location on campus, next to the city center, the railway station and a major hotel.
