Generating Accessible Multimodal User Interfaces Using MDA-Based Adaptation Approach

Abstract

In order to ensure accessibility of user interface, it is highly recommended to elaborate a generic solution which is compliant to disable user requirements and best accommodates their particular needs. Therefore, we propose, in this paper, a generic MDA-based solution of adapting application's interface to accessibility context. It consists of generating, automatically, accessible adapted User Interfaces. Hence, we propose a multimodel approach by incorporating the modality of interaction into adaptation process. Consequently, based on MDA principals, we develop different meta-model transformations to provide an adapted User Interface model according to recent accessibility context information and a given non adapted User Interface.
