Covering key areas of evaluation and methodology, client-side applications, specialist and novel technologies, along with initial appraisals of disabilities, this important book provides comprehensive coverage of web accessibility. Written by leading experts in the field, it provides an overview of existing research and also looks at future developments, providing a much deeper insight than can be obtained through existing research libraries, aggregations, or search engines. In tackling the subject from a research, rather than practitioner standpoint, scientists, engineers and postgraduate students will find a definitive and foundational text that includes field overviews, references, issues, new research, problems and solutions, and opinions from industrial experts and renowned academics from leading international institutions including Adobe, Google, IBM, W3C, and York, Dartmouth and Kansai Universities.

The fields of HCI and Software Engineering have evolved almost independently of each other until the last decade, when it became apparent that an integrated and combined perspective would benefit the development of interactive software applications. The chapters in this book are written by prominent researchers who bring to light the major integration issues and challenges, and offer a variety of solutions to bridging the HCI and SE gap, including: extending software engineering artifacts for UI specification, such as annotating use cases with task descriptions; enhancing object-oriented software engineering notations and models; possible extensions of HCI methods for requirements gathering through field observations and interviews; deriving a conceptual design model from scenario; task models and use cases and using personae as a way to understand and model end-users; and, new methodologies for interactive systems design, as well as approaches complementing existing methodologies.

Significant amounts of our time and energy are devoted to creating, managing, and avoiding information. computers and telecommunications technology have extended our regard for information and are driving changes in how we learn, work, and play. One result of these developments is that skills and strategies for storing and retrieving information have become more essential and more pervasive in our culture. This book considers how electronic technologies have changed these skills and strategies and augmented the fundamental human activity of information seeking. The author makes a case for creating new interface designs that allow the information seeker to choose what strategy to apply according to their immediate needs. Such systems may be designed by providing information seekers with alternative interface mechanisms for displaying and manipulating multiple levels of representation for information objects.
Information Seeking in Electronic Environments is essential reading for researchers and graduate students in information science, human-computerinteraction, and education, as well as for designers of information retrieval systems and interfaces for digital libraries and archives.
