- A model-driven approach for mobile and web applications, regarding accessibility and interoperability, AP.R
Abstract
Software applications have become vital in people´s daily lives. Consequently, the accessibility of these applications also increased in importance. Developing applications which are accessible also for handicapped users can be difficult, tedious, and error-prone. Using model-driven software development (MDSD) techniques, a generator can transform a high-level description of an applicat...
- Interactive web applications - continuous evaluations for promoting internet access and use for all, AP.R
Abstract
More than 50% of Brazilian homes already have Internet access. Recent researches showed that smartphones are already the second device that users most use to access Internet inside their homes. Additionally, new touchscreen technologies have received more preference from users. Many studies have approached improvements in usability and accessibility for these kinds of interfaces. These ...

- Guidelines and tools for supporting accessibility during the evolution of interactive web applications, AP.R
Abstract
There is a growing number of people who deal with the use of informatics in everyday tasks on the Internet and its broad range of services. The phenomenon has boosted the development of solutions for attending the users 'demands, their requirements for easier interactions, adopting recent technological innovations. Web Accessibility aims at enabling users using any agent (software or ha...

- Benefits of a web tool to support information architecture analysis by means of card sorting, BP.IC
Abstract
The usability of privacy policy tools is a current challenge in the area of Human-Computer Interaction and Information Security. Studies suggest that Information Architecture (IA) plays an important role in the process of improving the usability of privacy policy tools. Thus, IA assessment techniques are fundamental in this process. Card sorting is one of the key techniques for evaluati...
- A tool for automatic identification of dynamic components in rich internet applications (RIA), BP.IC
Abstract
Over the last decade, the Web has increasingly provided users with interactivity by Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). The interactivity is due to the use of several dynamic interface components, which have similar interaction behavior as desktop applications. However, due to the dynamic nature of RIAs, most applications still do not implement accessible solutions in their components fo...
- New principles of usable privacy and security (UPS) of access control interfaces designed for the average user, BP.DR
Abstract
Usable Security and Privacy (UPS) is a research field aimed to study the usability of systems that help end-users or administrators to manage security and privacy. Appropriate UPS inspection methods, as Heuristic Evaluations (HEs), of such systems are a requirement to move forward in the field. Usability principles for Information Technology Security Management (ITSM) tools have been st...
- Adaptations for the heuristic evaluation (he) method to novice evaluators, BP.MS
Abstract
Usability is an important attribute of software quality. Usability evaluations that require the presence of real users of the system are expensive and difficult to execute. Usability Inspections allow usability evaluation to occur without the presence of real users. The Heuristic Evaluation (HE) is the most used usability inspection method in the literature. However, the quality of exec...
- Navigation menus in web applications for mobile devices: issues of access and usability, BP.MS
Abstract
The diversification in the forms of Web access, driven by the increasing use ubiquitous devices, especially mobile devices, have motivated the development of methods for content adaptation available to be accessed within this new context in an accessible and usable. Besides the diversification of access, there is also the diversification users' profile that makes use of the Web resource...

- Smart toys and child's privacy: recommendations for designing more usable parental controls, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Smart toys are becoming popular and their sales are expected to grow threefold and exceed $15.5 billion by 2022. Yet, such toys have raised concerns about child`s privacy. However, usability of its parental (privacy) controls remains as a challenge in the literature. In this project, we seek to create recommendations for designing more usable parental controls. We plan to base our recom...
