Web accessibility is an amazing area for research in computer science because it offers a unique combination of human-computer interaction (HCI), artificial intelligence (AI), and web engineering motivating a number of challenging research questions. Equally important, research in this area has the potential to dramatically improve access to information access for a large group of web surfers when applied today. In this blog, I'll highlight some of the latest web accessibility research both from the WebInSight group and others and offer insights into the problems that most need addressing.
Some of my first posts will concentrate on the work that I've done as part of the WebInSight project and discuss why I believe they're important. As this blog moves forward I hope to bring in other contributors. Thanks for reading and stay tuned...
