The 26 long papers and 6 short papers presented together with 7 doctoral consortium papers, 2 invited talks, and 4 industry panel papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 161 submissions. The tutorials and workshops were organized in topical sections on intelligent techniques for web personalization and recommender systems; pervasive user modeling and personalization; user models for motivational systems; adaptive collaboration support; architectures and building blocks of web-based user adaptive systems; adaptation and personalization in e-b/learning using pedagogic conversational agents; and user modeling and adaptation for daily routines.
