PUMA

The "Personalised User interfaces for information Management and Authorisation" project aimed to develop an innovative approach to fraud prevention and improved human-machine interaction through adaptive personalisation of the human-machine interface. PUMA was funded by the EPSRC/DTI 'Management of Information' LINK programme from June 2000 until June 2003. In addition to the University of Birmingham, PUMA involved BT, Imagination Technologies and Snape Signals Research.
