چکیده
Potential users of Assistive Technologies (AT) have little assistance in AT selection and support. This paper develops the concept of a Common Accessibility Profile (CAP) which can be used as the basis for selecting and supporting computer-related ATs. The CAP is based on a user-AT-system model focusing on improving accessibility to the interactions between users and systems. The CAP provides a basis for identifying and dealing with accessibility issues in a standardized manner across multiple platforms. CAPs can readily be developed for existing systems and ATs and can be custom developed for specific users and environments. The CAP can be applied to the selection and management of ATs.
