Abstract

There is a lot of interest in developing environments utilizing various types of assistive technologies lately. Among else, people with specific difficulties may benefit from specially designed devices and software that aim in overcoming the disabilities of various groups. We describe a framework that aims in the provision of advanced services towards the facilitation of access to information for specific groups of people. Among else, our approach uses various tools and techniques. With wireless devices access to information is achieved independently of location, while with personalized services there is a capability to adjust the services and interfaces to various demands. Finally with a specific methodology that has been developed and tested as a result of international projects, the content and interfaces are adjusted to various needs of the participating user-groups.
