Equal access to all software and digital content should be a reality in the Digital Era. This argument is something defended both by existing regulations, norms and standards, and also business organizations and governments. Despite this acknowledgement, the reality is still far from the desired equality. For certain groups of disabled or impaired citizens, such as the visually impaired, the existence of e-accessibility compliance represents an opportunity to integrate, in a more simple and straightforward manner, their societies. Despite the existing poor results on e-accessibility compliance, the mentioned citizens insist on using digital devices in their daily lives. Even though, in the last decade, multiple standards and regulations have been published towards indicating how to develop accessible digital user interfaces, there are still two major issues surrounding its implementation: the complexity and disparity of the documents containing the abovementioned norms, and also the lack of e-accessibility know-how by software experts. With this in mind, a proposal for an accessible software development model that encompasses e-accessibility incorporation as one of the development process activities has been presented. This model might represent a very interesting support tool for software development organizations and a novel resource for learning and training institutions to be able to improve their computer science and informatics students’ skills on e-accessibility.

无障碍软件开发:概念模型建议

在数字时代,对所有软件和数字内容的平等访问应该成为现实。这种论点既受到现行法规,规范和标准的捍卫,也受到商业组织和政府的捍卫。尽管承认了这一事实,但现实仍然远非理想的平等。对于某些残障或残障公民群体(例如视障者),电子可访问性合规性的存在代表了以更简单和直接的方式整合其社会的机会。尽管在电子可访问性合规性方面目前未取得良好的结果,但上述公民仍坚持在日常生活中使用数字设备。即使在过去的十年中,为了指示如何开发可访问的数字用户界面,也发布了多种标准和规定,它的实现仍然存在两个主要问题:包含上述规范的文档的复杂性和差异性,以及软件专家缺乏电子可访问性的专门知识。考虑到这一点,已经提出了一种针对可访问软件开发模型的建议,该模型应将电子可访问性纳入作为开发过程活动之一。该模型对于软件开发组织来说可能是一个非常有趣的支持工具,对于学习和培训机构来说,它是一种新颖的资源,可以提高他们的计算机科学和信息学学生的电子可访问性技能。考虑到这一点,已经提出了一种针对可访问软件开发模型的建议,该模型应将电子可访问性纳入作为开发过程活动之一。该模型对于软件开发组织来说可能是一个非常有趣的支持工具,对于学习和培训机构来说,它是一种新颖的资源,可以提高他们的计算机科学和信息学专业学生的电子可访问性技能。考虑到这一点,提出了一种针对可访问软件开发模型的建议,该模型应将电子可访问性纳入作为开发过程活动之一。该模型对于软件开发组织来说可能是一个非常有趣的支持工具,对于学习和培训机构来说,它是一种新颖的资源,可以提高他们的计算机科学和信息学专业学生的电子可访问性技能。
