Abstract

This workshop aims to advance an understanding of the concepts and principles of universal design and extrapolate on their relevance to Information Society Technologies. Specifically, the workshop will seek to review methods and techniques currently in use, ongoing work and future research issues, and establish the foundations of a conceptual frame of reference for applying universal design into Information Society Technologies in general, and HCI in particular.
