Abstract
The growing need for content customization in websites has fostered the development of systems which try to identify the user’s navigation patterns. These may be, normally, identified by means of log file analysis. However, this solution does not identify the semantic intention behind user’s navigation. This paper provides an approach to incorporating semantic knowledge to the process of identifying the user’s intentions in the navigation of a website with semantic support. The capture of the user’s intentions is achieved by the semantic enrichment of the log files and the use of and approach that takes into account the linguistic and cognitive aspects in the development of the user model.
