Abstract

The aim of adaptive user interface is to provide different layouts and relevant information according to the current context-of-use (users, platforms and environments). Today, these systems are indispensable to those who want to retrieve appropriate information with less effort at anytime and anywhere. In this paper, the authors present an approach to automatically evaluate UI adaptation at runtime. The idea consists on foreseeing the evaluation from the early stages of application development by integrating a tracing system which represents the first phase of a user-centred approach for the design and the evaluation of adaptive system (AS) called MetTra (evaluation METhod based on a TRAcing system). In fact, the authors will explain in depth the stages of tracing mechanism integration in AS design, with illustrations concerning transport applications. Finally, they will propose some future works.
