As the use of mobile handheld devices for Web access becomes increasingly popular, ease of use has become an important issue for mobile devices. However, due to their small screen size, users often suffer from the poor content presentation that seriously hinders the usability of Mobile Web applications. Therefore, adapting Web content presentation for more effective user browsing on handheld devices becomes very important. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid approach to presentation adaptation that integrates three techniques, namely tree-view adaptation, hierarchical text summarization, and keyword highlighting. A prototype system called M-Web is implemented based on the proposed approach. We conducted a preliminary user study to evaluate the effect of presentation adaptation on mobile Web browsing. The results show that presentation adaptation improves users' performance and perception of mobile Web browsing. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
