Building Adaptive Rich Interfaces for Interactive Ubiquitous Applications

The emerging of the Web 2.0 (O’Reilly, 2005) has allowed users more interactivity with Web applications. Among the striking features of Web 2.0 applications, the use of rich interfaces that afford users a more meaningful experience with these applications stands out. In this context, the so-called Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) have transposed the boundaries of simple interfaces built only in HyperText Markup Language (HTML). Through the adoption of technologies that enable creating more advanced interfaces with interactive resources, such as asynchronous communication, drag-and-drop components, audio and video players, among others, RIAs resemble the appearance, behavior and usability of desktop applications (Deitel & Deitel, 2008).
