Desktop-to-mobile Web adaptation through customizable two-dimensional semantic redesign

Paternò F., Zichittella G.

Ubiquitous Applications  User Interfaces  Multi-Device Environments  [INFO.INFO-DL]Computer Science [cs]/Digital Libraries [cs.DL]  Adaptation 

In this paper we present a novel method for desktop-to-mobile adaptation. The solution also supports end-users in customizing multi-device ubiquitous user interfaces. In particular, we describe an algorithm and the corresponding tool support to perform desktop-to-mobile adaptation by exploiting logical user interface descriptions able to capture interaction semantic information indicating the purpose of the interface elements. We also compare our solution with existing tools for similar goals.
