SIGWEB supports the multi-disciplinary field of hypertext and hypermedia, facilitating its application both on the World-Wide Web and also in independent, distributed and stand-alone environments. It provides a forum for the promotion, dissemination, and exchange of ideas concerning research and applications among scientists, systems designers and end-users.
In addition to the established Web and Hypertext themes, the SIG is actively exploring ideas at the intersection of hypermedia and Digital Libraries, Software Engineering and the Humanities.

New Review of Hypermedia and MultimediaSpecial issue on Adaptive Hypermedia
Guest editors: Peter Brusilovsky & Paul De Bra
Adaptive hypermedia is a research area at the crossroads of hypermedia and user modeling. Adaptive hypermedia systems offer an alternative to the traditional one-size-fits-all hypermedia and Web systems by adapting to the goals, interests, and knowledge of individual users as they are represented in the individual user models. This chapter is focused on adaptive navigation support technologies originally developed in the field of adaptive hypermedia. By adaptively altering the appearance of links or and the content on every browsed page, these technologies support personalized access to information. Over the last 10 years, adaptive navigation support technologies have been used in many adaptive Web systems in a range of application areas from e-learning to e-commerce.
The special issue focuses on foundations of adaptive hypermedia that are not specific to a particular application domain. (However, such foundations may be illustrated by applications in a specific domain.) Suggested topics include but are not limited to:
* acquisition and updating of individual and group user models
* (distributed) user modeling service architectures
* intelligent agent technology for adaptive systems
* composition of and communication between adaptive systems
* data mining for personalization and adaptation
* adaptation methods and techniques
* architectures for scalable high-performance adaptive systems
* usability and scrutability in user modeling and adaptive systems
* security and privacy in adaptive systems
Submissions that extend mature research publications at major conferences related to (adaptive) hypermedia are encouraged.
Submissions may take the form of research papers or shorter technical notes and should be submitted electronically at the Journalšs Manuscript Central site http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tham. Questions and enquiries are welcome.
Important Dates:
Submission deadline: November 17, 2008
Acceptance notification: December 28, 2008
