User-Adapted Web of Things for Accessibility
Ilaria Torre, Ilknur Celik · 2015
This paper describes a new wave of the Web that is the useradapted Web of Things. This is a new step in the evolution of the Web of Things and of adaptive web-based systems. The current proposals for the Web of Things focus on the augmentation of the physical objects in order to provide enhanced services. However, in our view, the Web of Things can also be a means to make physical objects accessible or more usable for people with special needs by exploiting adaptive and semantic techniques. The architecture presented in the paper describes the specific modules and components at the basis of this approach.
