Abstract

Despite the outbreak in the development of new User Interface toolkits, the need for a combined toolkit that inherently supports adaptation to user needs and addresses accessibility issues still remains. MAID introduces a new approach to developing user interfaces that encapsulate new technology trends and also address individual users' needs. Additionally, MAID is accompanied by a library of adaptable widgets --- primitives and complex --- that allow designers to develop the actual user interfaces used by the MAID framework, eliminating thus the need for developers to be experts in user interface design and accessibility, in order to implement dynamic applications.
