Englische Kurzfassung:
The ever increasing popularity of the Internet results in a growing number of users being connected to the World Wide Web with new types of devices ranging from Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) to mobile phones. This clearly offers new possibilities for E-Commerce applications. However, existing applications have not been designed with the benefits and limitations of these new types of devices in mind. We present an approach which strictly separates between content, presentation and behavior in order to be able to dynamically generate adapted and individualized content. Besides device information our prototype system takes other context data into account including location and user preferences. Our approach allows us to semi-automatically produce content which is not only optimized for the target platform but also designed for the individual users and their specific needs.
