Abstract
New audiovisual experiences involve consuming several contents displayed through multiple
internet-connected devices. The TV is still the central hub of the living room, but it is often used
simultaneously with other screens. Consequently, the user has the chance to consume all different contents
at once across multiple devices. However, no existing adaptation models are available to dynamically adapt
such a multitude of contents in multi-device contexts. To address this gap, this paper proposes a novel
multi-device adaptation methodology to build adaptive User Interfaces for multi-screen hybrid broadcastbroadband TV experiences. The methodology is extensible to any kind of content, device and user, and
is applicable to different contexts considering technological evolution and other fields of application. The
proposed methodology is the outcome of extensive research that arose from a previous multi-device media
service deployment with broadcasters
