PeWe (Personalized Web) Group

Introduction

PeWe (Personalized Web) is an informal research group at the Institute of Informatics and Software Engineering, Slovak University of Technology, Faculty of Informatics and Information Technologies. It is concerned to the new trends in design, development and use of adaptive social web-based systems with semantics, which allow personalized presentation of information in various domains. Everybody interested in adaptation and personalization questions in web-based systems, adaptive, semantic and social web is welcome.

Place and time

Meetings for autumn term of 2010/11 will be scheduled in mid September.
