“…This research conducts several activities begin with literature review, problem definition, proposed solution and evaluation. In literature review, this research conducts a comprehensive review of existing literature on web accessibility [10], [11], [12], WCAG guidelines [13], [14], ARIA landmarks [15], machine learning algorithms for accessibility enhancement [16], and related topics. After clearly define the primary accessibility issues faced by modern web and cloud applications in problem definition activity, then this research describes the AI-enabled system proposed for dynamically enhancing web accessibility.…”

The web accessibility landscape is a significant challenge, with 96.3% of home pages displaying issues with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). This paper addresses the primary accessibility issues, such as missing Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) landmarks, ill-formed headings, low contrast text, and inadequate form labeling. The dynamic nature of modern web and cloud applications presents challenges, such as developers' limited awareness of accessibility implications, potential code bugs, and API failures. To address these issues, an AI-enabled system is proposed to dynamically enhance web accessibility. The system uses machine learning algorithms to identify and rectify accessibility issues in real-time, integrating with existing development workflows. Empirical evaluation and case studies demonstrate the efficacy of this solution in improving web accessibility across diverse scenarios.

“…Bu bağlamda 147 üniversiteye ait aday öğrenci sayfası çalışmanın örneklemini oluşturmuştur. Yakın tarihli bir literatür çalışması [38], 70 adet web sitesinin belirli bir alandaki web erişilebilirliğini analiz etmede yeterli olacağını belirtmiştir. Buna göre, bu araştırmanın örneklemi olan 147 üniversite öğrenci web sayfasının ilgili alanda çıkarımlar elde etme açısından fazlasıyla yeterli olacağı açıktır.…”

“…Farklı alanlardaki (eğitim, sağlık, hükümet vb.) web erişilebilirli k değerlendirmelerinin yapıldığı çalışmaların incelendiği bir literatür inceleme çalışmasında [38], TAW aracının kullanım sıklığı bakımından ilk beşte yer aldığı görülmüştür. Web erişilebilirliğini etkileyen bir diğer önemli kriter de mobil uyumluluktur.…”

Üniversitelerin aday öğrenci web sayfaları sosyal ve akademik anlamda paydaşlarına bilgi sağlama konusunda önemli bir iletişim kaynağıdır, bu sebeple bu sayfaların kullanımının kolay, güvenli ve erişilebilirlik standartlarına uygun olması beklenir. Bu makale, Türkiye’deki üniversitelerin aday öğrenci web sayfalarının erişilebilirlik, kullanılabilirlik ve güvenlik değerlendirmesini sunmaktadır. Bu amaçla, üniversitelerin aday öğrencilerine yönelik 147 adet web sayfası tespit edilmiş ve çeşitli otomatik test araçları ile değerlendirilmiştir. Ayrıca, değerlendirme sonrası üniversitelerin benzer davranış kalıplarının belirlenmesi amacıyla kümeleme analizi yapılmıştır. Sonuçlar, devlet ya da vakıf fark etmeksizin üniversitelerin büyük çoğunluğunun erişilebilirlik ve kullanım kalitesine daha az dikkat ettiğini göstermiştir. Değerlendirilen web sayfalarının WCAG 2.0 yönergesine göre düşük uyumluluk seviyesine sahip olduğu görüldü. Güvenlik açısından kritik bir sorun tespit edilmemiştir ancak geliştirilmesi gereken belirli noktalar bulunmuştur. Ayrıca bu çalışma, web sayfalarının erişilebilirlik, kullanılabilirlik ve güvenlik ihlallerin çözülebilmesi için geliştiricilere ve yöneticilere bazı değerli öneriler sunmaktadır.

“…It is important to note that, guidelines already exist to check whether IS comply with accessibility requirements [31][32][33][34], with Web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG 2.0) [35] being the most prominent. Nevertheless, although useful, these guidelines are often introduced in the development process at a very late stage, i.e.…”

Purpose The right to tourism and leisure has become a crucial aspect of society. In that sense, through more accessible tourism, it is possible to improve travel conditions for people with disabilities (PwD). Nonetheless, barriers still exist, with the lack of information about accessibility conditions, as well as communication accessibility itself, representing some of the main obstacles. Information systems (IS) can help overcome these hurdles. However, it is verified, that methodologies to support the development of accessible IS are currently very scarce. Thus, this study intends to develop an accessible IS for accessible tourism and propose a roadmap to support the creation of accessible IS solutions. Methods To obtain the intended accessible tourism solution, an action research methodology was followed, which involved adapting already established frameworks, that combine Agile development and user-centered design techniques. Adjustments were made to incorporate accessibility, taking into consideration the requirements of the accessible tourism market. Results In this study, a web application named access@tour by action was created. This mobile solution is capable of improving information management within the accessible tourism market. From this experimental study, a proposal for a methodological roadmap emerged. This roadmap helps better understand how to develop accessible IS, by demonstrating techniques for gathering accessibility requirements and validating them. Conclusion The access@tour by action is a much-needed solution, to enhance accessible tourism conditions. The roadmap is adaptable and suitable for IS projects involving accessibility, regardless of the area. Both results provide a better perspective on how to integrate accessibility during the development of IS, possibly supporting future researchers in creating accessible solutions.
