Supporting adaptive tour with high level petri nets

One of the issues for tour planning applications is to adaptively provide personalized advices for different types of tourists and tour activities. This paper proposes a high level Petri Nets based approach to providing some level of adaptation by implementing adaptive navigation in a tour node space. The new model supports dynamic reordering or removal of tour nodes along a tour path; it supports multiple travel modes and incorporates multimodality within its tour planning logic to derive adaptive tour. Examples are given to demonstrate how to realize adaptive interfaces and personalization. Future directions are also discussed at the end of this paper.
