“…-INSPIRE is an adaptive hypermedia that emphasizes the fact that learners perceive and process information in very different ways and integrates ideas from theories of instructional design and learning styles. INSPIRE, throughout its interaction with the learner, dynamically generates learner-tailored lessons that gradually lead to the accomplishment of learner's learning goals [11].…”

It's worth noting that the present paper lies within the range of modeling the learner in adaptive educational system as a conceptual modeling of the learner. The learner model is an essential component for Adaptive e-Learning systems. The term adaptation in e-Learning systems involves the selection and manner of presentation of each learning activity as a function that examines the entity of knowledge, skills and other information given by each subject taught. The present paper aims at studding the functionalities of the learner model in different Adaptive Hypermedia Educational Systems in the three stages of developing and managing this model. We will present in this comparative study, a full analysis of the learner model used in ten major hypermedias to come up with most appropriate method to treat the dynamic aspect of this model.

Separation of Concerns (SoC) is a common principle to reduce the complexity of large software and hypermedia systems. Amongst a variety of approaches, adaptation aspects are a well-known solution to significantly improve SoC in adaptive hypermedia applications. To model adaptation aspects in XML-based hypermedia applications, we developed PX-Weave, a tool which allows to specify and weave such aspects in multi-staged XML transformation environments. However, while aspects increase modularity and thus decrease complexity of software, they do also introduce some complex problems. The most prominent one, aspect interaction, has received a lot of attention from researchers during the last decade. In this paper we investigate the problem of aspect interaction for adaptation aspects. We present a combined approach for static and dynamic detection of aspect interactions in multi-staged XML-based hypermedia applications, which we implemented as an add-on to PX-Weave.

“…More recently, Hera and AMACONT have been extended with support for a combination of rule-based and aspect-oriented approaches [5,31] to enable the specification of multiple high-level design concerns. To this end, HyperAdapt [30] is ongoing work that currently investigates how to detect aspect interactions, conflict resolution and controlled linking of web adaptation aspects since this can become a major concern in complex applications based on this model [31]. In XCML, we instead build on a best-match approach that does not require the full specification of rules and conditions for the controlled linking between them.…”

XCML: providing context-aware language extensions for the specification of multi-device web applications

There is a vast body of research dealing with the development of contextaware web applications that can adapt to different user, platform and device contexts. However, the range and growing diversity of new devices poses two significant problems to existing approaches. First, many techniques require a number of additional design processes and modelling steps before applications can be adapted. Second, the new generation of platforms and technologies underlying these devices as well as upcoming web standards HTML5 and CSS3 have partly changed the way in which web applications are implemented nowadays and often limit the way in which they can be adapted. In this paper, we present XCML as one example of a domain-specific language that tightly integrates context-aware concepts and adaptivity mechanisms to support developers in the specification and implementation of multi-channel web applications. In contrast to most existing approaches, the objective is to use a more lightweight approach to adaptation that can dynamically evolve and support new requirements as they emerge. Our solution builds on versioning principles in combination with a context matching process based on a declaration of contextdependent variants of content, navigation and presentation in terms of context expressions at different levels of granularity that are specific to the application. To support this, a formally defined context algebra is used to parse and resolve the
