Optimizing user interaction for mobile web browsing

Abstract

The small form-factor of mobile handsets and the longer, variable latency of cellular networks negatively affect user experience in mobile web related activities. In this paper we describe the design and prototype implementation of a framework for improving mobile web interaction based on monitored interaction history and runtime interaction context. Our framework predicts future interaction sequences and optimizes predicted user interactions with navigation shortcuts and automatic text copying and formfilling Copyright © 2009 ACM.
