INTEGRATING CONTEXT KNOWLEDGE IN USER INTERACTION USING ANSWER SET PROGRAMMING FOR ENHANCING WEB ACCESSIBILITY

Abstract

Today, users of web-based platforms are generally heterogeneous and interact via mobile devices for computing, and this is likely to increase in the future. The user interfaces to these platforms can considerably benefit from the semantic of context. They can adapt the utility of interaction styles and display modes depending largely on the surrounding environment, the user’s needs and the characteristics of on-line resources. In order to provide means for that, we trace in this work a perspective approach for integrating relevant parts of context in user interaction using semantic web technologies and Answer Set Programming that enhances web accessibility. Furthermore, by specifying constraints on the contextual information, we can determine which types of context are more important than others regarding the user interaction process. This allow us in a semi-automatic manner to consider only the most relevant answer sets in order to automatically adapting the user interface characteristics to users’ contextual information.
