A Preliminary Experience in Optimizing the Layout of Web Pages by Genetic Algorithms to Fit Mobile Devices

摘要

Getting access to web content by mobile devices is becoming widespread. This poses the need of adapting content that have been designed for desktop application to being delivered on smaller displays. In this paper we investigate the application of a genetic algorithm as means for an automatic adaptation of existent pages to mobile device requirements, reporting preliminary results and outlining problems to be faced and solved in order to make this approach robust.
