Web content adaptation for mobile devices using tree-based algorithms

Mobile web browsing usually becomes time-consuming since currently it requires horizontal and vertical scrolling In addition to this, users interested in only a section of a web page are often burdened with cumbersome whole web pages that not only do not properly fit their mobile screens but also re...
