A Model Driven Approach for Improving the Generation of Accessible User Interfaces

摘要

In a ubiquitous computing, disable users are required to accommodate their particular needs using interactive systems. Thus, ensuring accessibility into applications' user interfaces is highly recommended. Hence, it is crucial to elaborate a generic solution which is compliant to handicapped user requirements. Therefore, this paper is addressed to define a model driven approach for generating adapted interface according to accessibility context. This approach benefits from Model Driven Engineering methodologies. In addition, it is characterized by the integration of a multimodal solution which selects the suitable modality of interaction into the adaptation process. This will improve the degree of user interface flexibility. This approach is based on different model transformations' belonging to different abstraction levels of the adapted user interface development according to the captured accessibility context attributes.
