Schedule

      * Submission deadline: 3 June 2005
      * Publication date: September 2005

Theme
Submissions are sought for a special edition for the Hypermedia Systems
theme of JoDI on Adaptive Hypermedia.

In recent years there has been extensive research on adaptation and
personalisation in hypermedia, and such systems are starting to make an
impact upon mainstream web design. Users have disparate expectations,
backgrounds and requirements and adaptive hypermedia systems are those that
build a profile of the user and then deliver content that is appropriate
for these needs (rather than the more traditional "one-size-fits-all"
approach of the web). It is hoped that papers in this special issue will
describe work that addresses some of the fundamental issues of adaptive
hypermedia as well as describing real-world applications of this technology.

Topics are likely to include (but are not restricted to) the following:

      * Applications of adaptive systems - especially in the areas of
e-learning, e-health, e-commerce and digital libraries.
      * Standards and interoperability for adaptive hypermedia systems, and
for user models.
      * Metadata for adaptive hypermedia.
      * Agents for adaptive hypermedia.
      * Adaptive information retrieval.
      * User interfaces for adaptive hypermedia, and the visualisation of
adaptation.
      * Authoring for adaptive hypermedia systems.
      * User modelling for adaptive hypermedia systems.
      * Adaptation for the semantic web.
      * Evaluation of adaptive systems, and of user models.
      * Adaptive systems for mobile and ubiquitous computing
      * Security and privacy aspects of adaptive systems

We expressly invite authors of papers presented at workshops associated
with the AH2004 conference to submit extended versions of their
work. Please note - the reuse of text and illustrations published in the
AH2004 workshop proceedings (although not the main conference proceedings)
is permitted without prior authorization.

Submission

Authors should submit their papers electronically using the submission form
at jodi.tamu.edu. Selecting the title or editor for this issue from the
Theme or Editor drop-down box will alert the editor to your submission
automatically.

Before submitting please take note of the journal's Guidelines for
submission: notes for authors. There is no fixed length for submissions,
but papers should be self-contained. Authors are encouraged to leverage the
online nature of JoDI in developing submissions that optimally illustrate
the issues raised in papers. Authors who wish to submit a paper with
unusual features are requested to contact the Special issue Editors prior
to submission.

All submissions will be subject to peer review. Authors of accepted papers
will be notified in July, 2005 and they will then be able to modify their
papers, with a deadline for the receipt of the final version of the 5th
August, 2005.
