1st international workshop on media studies and implementations that help improving access to disabled users (MSIADU'09)
David Fonseca, Oscar Garcia, Eva Villegas, Jaume Duran · 2009
This Workshop is based on the work carried out during the 3rd International Workshop on Human-Centered Computing (HCC08) held at the ACM Multimedia 2008 conference in Vancouver [1]. There, participants discussed on how to use technology to achieve an accessible environment for the disabled. The event seeks to find original and highly innovative research in the area of Multimedia (studies and implementations) in order to improve accessibility to real and virtual scenarios that might be applied to all kinds of users with disabilities or difficulties when implementing concrete actions (navigation or interaction with a particular medium). Furthermore, we need solutions to adapt the environment, products and services, to the final needs of the user.
