Abstract
My PhD research focuses on supporting non-technical end users to flexibly integrate, into personal interactive workspaces, heterogeneous services available in the Web, in order to satisfy their own personal needs in various contexts of daily life. End users should be enabled to shape their application at use time, and also supported on identifying data and services of interests. The latter requirement addresses an issue about improving the quality of the retrieved services with respect to the end user’s goal. As described in this paper, a direction that I am exploring refers to the use of linked open data as a new source of data to be exploited, in order to better fulfill the end user’s desires.
