Adaptive User Interfaces (AUIs) are those user interfaces, mostly graphical, that can adapt themselves (Findlater and Gajos, 2009) depending on varying conditions from the end user (e.g., preferences), the platform (e.g., the screen resolution), or the environment (e.g., a noise level or a location). In this area, adaptive layout refers to the ability of a …

Adaptive User Interfaces (AUIs), a well-known research sub-field within Intelligent User Interfaces (IUIs), were defined by Maybury (1999) as “human-computer interfaces that aim to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and naturalness of interaction by representing, reasoning, and acting on models of the user, domain, task, discourse, and media (e.g., graphics, natural language, gesture)”. User interface adaptation …
