Adaptive Web Site Agents

We discuss the design and evaluation of a class of agents that we call adaptive web site agents. The goal of such an agent is to help a user find additional information at a particular web site, adapting its behavior in response to the actions of the ...
Combining Interface Agents and Situated Agents for Deploying Adaptive Web Applications
Engineering Environment-Mediated Multi-Agent Systems

A web site presents a graph---like spatial structure composed of pages connected by hyperlinks. This structure may represent an environment in which situated agents associated to visitors of the web site (user agents) are positioned and moved in order ...

CIKM '09: Proceedings of the 18th ACM conference on Information and knowledge management

Users frequently modify a previous search query in hope of retrieving better results. These modifications are called query reformulations or query refinements. Existing research has studied how web search engines can propose reformulations, but has ...
