S t a t u s o f t h i s d o c u m e n tThis document has been reviewed by W3C Members and other interested parties and has been endorsed by the Director as a W3C Recommendation. It is a stable document and may be used as reference material or cited as a normative reference from another documents. W3C's role in making the Recommendation is to draw attention to the specification and to promote its widespread deployment. This enhances the functionality and universality of the Web. The English version of this specification is the only normative version. However, for translations in other languages see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WAI-WEBCONTENT-TRANSLATIONS.
Increasingly, the Web is providing unprecedented access to information and interaction for people with disabilities. However, the Web will not be equally accessible, allowing people with disabilities to access and contribute to the Web, until: • Authoring tools and development environments (including content managements systems such as blogging applications) produce accessible Web content and have accessible interfaces; • Browsers, multimedia players and assistive technologies provide a completely usable and accessible experience; • Content is designed to be accessible. Web accessibility relies on tools that are designed to work together and support the needs of the people who use them. This paper describes how Web accessibility depends on several components working together. It demonstrates the relationship between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) guidelines: Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG), and User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG).
This session will highlight recent technical innovations in user interface technologies for the Internet. The Internet poses many unique challenges for the user interface designer. It also enables functional capabilities that may be applied in a variety of domains. Attendees will have an opportunity to have first-hand experience with developmental technologies that offer a sampling of the latest ideas. Developers participating in the session will interact with small groups of attendees and provide a brief demonstration and discussion. Through this session, the intent is to raise HFES attendee's awareness of the direction of technological innovation for the Internet and to provide a context for the exchange of insights and ideas among all those concerned with interface design and product design in general, for the Internet.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
