Summary: The increasing variety of user device technologies has raised the necessity
for ubiquitous content provision, which is characterized by "intelligent"
content delivery to end users, irrespectively of their device. Moreover,
changes in the user environment create the necessity of appropriately adapting
the content and its presentation so that it can be more easily perceived. In
this paper, we present a multimodal and adaptive system for Web user interfaces
that deals with these challenges. Using as input a generic and abstract form of
Web content, our system transforms it to a specific data format suitable for
the client device. In addition, it uses contextual information, gathered from
the user environment through a wireless sensor network, in order to present the
served content in an optimal way under the current environmental conditions.
