- A. Smeaton, Jamie Callan. 2001. Joint DELOS-NSF workshop on personalisation and recommender systems in digital libraries. Abstract: One of the important ways for users to feel comfortable with and become productive using information technology is to personalise or tailor systems to individuals or groups of users. This covers both explicit personalisation directly by the user, and implicit tailoring by systems that track users usage patterns and preferences and adapt systems and interfaces accordingly. The concept of personalisation thus is about making systems different for individual people, but the concept of personalization itself can mean different things.
