Nowadays, Assistive Technology (AT) systems are closely tied to the devices that they control. Considering a smart environment where a person with a disability needs to interact with multiple devices, the user is forced to rely on AT software tools available on the each used platform. Therefore, computer skills are required to adjust any different computing environment configuration according to the...
In this paper, we focus on how the virtualization technology can support the usage of Assistive Technology (AT) in cloud computing. AT provides software tools to people with disabilities. Unfortunately, these pieces of software are not easy to configure when a disabled user needs to occasionally use a shared computer, e.g., in an internet point, in a library, in a campus, and so on. The proposed solution...
Assistive Technology (AT) provides essential computer accessibility for people with disabilities. In this paper, we examine how Cloud computing can provide adaptive user interfaces to people with disabilities in order to enable them accessing AT tools in form of Software as a Service (SaaS). The proposed solution consists in creating adaptive user interfaces deploying AT tools in Virtual Machines...
