abstract = "In order to fulfill the needs and preferences of todays web users,
adaptive Web applications have been proposed. Existing adaptation
approaches usually adapt the content of pages according to the
user interest. However, the adaptation of the interface structure
to meet user needs and preferences is still incipient. In
addition, building adaptive Web applications requires a lot of
effort from developers. In this paper, we propose an approach to
support the development of adaptive Web applications, analyzing
the user behavior during navigation, and exploring the mining of
client logs. In our approach, called RUM (Real-time Usage Mining),
user actions are collected in the applications interface and
processed synchronously. Thus, we are able detect behavioral
patterns for the current application user, while she is browsing
the application. Facilitating its deployment, RUM provides a
toolkit which allows the application to consume information about
the user behavior. By using this toolkit, developers are able to
code adaptations that are automatically triggered in response to
the data provided by the toolkit. Experiments were conducted on
different websites to demonstrate the efficiency of the approach
to support interface adaptations that improve the user
experience.",
