Adaptive web system XAPOS was developed and used for personalized navigation of two groups of users for two adaptive methods comparison. The used personalized adaptation approach is concept-based and adaptive algorithm uses concept space and keywords in English. However, the content is available in Czech, Turkish and English languages. Multilingual content is presented in language-corresponding user interface. The first statistical results seem to be good, navigational pattern analysis found usual patterns of the navigation of the user´s behaviour for both Czech and Turkish participants of the controlled experiment.
