A Software Product Line Approach for Handling
Privacy Constraints in Web Personalization

Student: Yang Wang

 

Advisor: Alfred Kobsa, UCI/ISR

 

Abstract: This research aims at reconciling web personalization with privacy constraints imposed by legal restrictions and by users' privacy preferences. Inspired by the ability of software product lines to support software variability, we propose a user modeling architecture based thereon that supports architectural level configuration management to dynamically select personalization methods that satisfy current privacy constraints.
