WaypostEye – a Software Tool for Navigation Improvement Support of Adaptive Websites

Abstract

One frequently used method for navigation improvement of web sites is to establish a link between resources such as web pages or files, when it is fully justified. Adaptive web sites may change their display and structure based on a previously recorded user's behavior. The software tool that is described in this paper provides the designer with a graphical presentation of established link proposals between resources. In this way, it supports the designer's decisions referring to establishing new links between resources. Therefore, it makes a contribution to the improvement of the navigational structure of such web sites. This software establishes decision support information and Web designers are able to make business decisions in a relatively easy and visual way.
