Paper Abstract:      It is sometimes a challenge to untangle the large amount of information on the Web. We thus need to adapt this information to a given user in a particular context. This adaptation is performed thanks to the user preferences, of course, but also by exploiting the context of use of the system (the device, the location of the user, the group the user belongs to). The generation of the adapted user interface can be seen as the generation of an adaptive document where the result is obtained through the combination of the adequate fragments of information. Our generic approach is based on constraints generated from the user preferences, group preferences and from the context (e.g. depending on the device, some fragments are displayed differently). As an example, a web server’s architecture is briefly presented in which we explain how we adapt the information (selection of what to present – content; and decision on how to present it – display).
