This is accomplished by adapting both the objects’ content, as well as their presentation to the current usage context. Content thereby may be encoded in different presentation formats like video, audio, image, and marked-up text. The usage context embraces a set of properties describing the current usage environment of the guide. This includes, for example, the consumer device’s capabilities, its current location, and the user’s preferences. Both, the content adaptation and presentation services are based on standardWeb technologies for increased interoperability. Finally, the guidance system is augmented with a Web-based content management and a statistics module, which enable for remote content administration and usage evaluations, respectively.}, isbn13 = {978-3-540-68257-8}, keywords = {Multimedia-based guide for stationary and mobile devices, context-awareness, content adaptation, presentation adaptation, content management.}, language = {EN}, pdf = {https://www.itec.aau.at/bib/files/A multimedia-based guidance system for various consumer devices.pdf}, talktype = {none}, url = {http://www.webist.org/} }
