Accessibility assessment simulation setting for new programs layout and enhancement (Available) Funded under 7th FWP (Seventh Framework Programme) Study place: ICT-2007.7.2 Accessible and inclusive ICT CoordinatorContact Individual: Contact--> TZOVARAS Dimitrios Tel: +30-2311257777Fax: +30-2310474128 Email: ContactOrganisation:CENTRE FOR Analysis AND Engineering HELLASINFORMATICS AND TELEMATICS INSTITUTECharilaou-Thermi Street 6th KmGR57001 THESSALONIKIGREECEProject descriptionAccessibility is a hot topic nowadays. Authorities and experts are putting a strong effort on pushing forward accessibility of software programs but, despite this fact, ICT applications and systems are still not fully available today. The main goal of Available is to improve the accessibility of software growth products, by introducing a harmonised accessibility methodology into the software style and design and development processes,
Office 2010 Discount, using significantly better measurement strategies and methodologies.
Accessible will groundwork and develop a process for collating and merging different methodological tools, checking the coherence with the W3CWAI ARIA and other standards in order to produce an Open Source Assessment Simulation Surroundings. This will enable large organisations, SMEs or individuals (developers,
Office Professional Plus 2010 Key, designers, etc.) to produce software products of superior accessibility and quality, accompanied with appropriate measures and proposals for best practice. The triggering idea behind Available is to contribute for better accessibility for all citizens, to increase the use of standards, and to develop an evaluation simulation natural environment (including a suite of accessibility analysing tools as well as developer-aid tools) to assess efficiently, easily and rapidly the accessibility and viability of software programs for all user groups.
A challenge of Accessible is also the integration of combinations of many possible disabilities,
Windows 7 Enterprise Key, rather than on an individual basis. This is particularly important as with aging,
Office Pro Plus 2010 Key, everyone is likely to acquire multiple disabilities, and although each one might be relatively minor; their combined effects are certainly major. The proposed evaluation simulation surroundings will be demonstrated in the four pilots of Accessible for the evaluation of: a) Mobile programs (including JavaFX Scripts), b) Web programs, c) Web services (mainly focusing on infomobility services), and d) description languages (e.g. UML, SDL,
Office 2010 Code, etc.).
