STAMP: Adaptable Templates for Synchronized Multimedia Presentations

This paper addresses the adaptation of dynamic and synchronized multimedia presentations built by querying XML compatible data sources. We provide WIS designers with facilities for describing presentations whose content is not known at design time in terms of quantity, but only after the execution of queries. Our approach relies on the definition of a template. A template consists of a model that aims at automatically adapting the multimedia content of a presentation to both the user’s profile and the characteristics of her/his access device. We show here how a template is built and how adaptations of the presentation are performed when the quantity of information and/or the material capabilities of the access devices (e.g. display size), do not match the template’s spatiotemporal specifications.
