A review was carried out to map the existing accessibility problems in the interaction of people with visual impairment with mobile devices. Seven groups of problems were found, which allowed establishment a set of recommendations and future studies to improve accessibility on mobile devices. A case study was planned and conducted addressing the group \"gesture-based interaction\", which had the highest number of problems in the literature review. The empirical study aimed to evaluate touch gestures made by 12 visually impaired people by using an application developed for this purpose. Gestures represented by the letters \"V\" and \"Z\" had performance similar to those already available on the Android Platform. Other factors have influenced the recognition with speed being the main factor in reducing the performance of gestures.","PeriodicalId":345266,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 15th Brazilian Symposium on Human Factors in Computing Systems","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131713696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The language's goal is enabling stakeholders to contribute towards the creation, by offering their domain knowledge, and expressing their desires and longings to collaborate on the development of more effective therapeutic applications. The language was successfully used to model applications for two different institutions, each of which treating patients with different therapeutic and interaction needs.

It delivers hardware, software tools and other resources for application development and hosting, as a service. Its users are developers who need to build and deploy new applications. Besides computational power, PaaS environments (PaaSE) offer services, development tools or even complete apps to be putted together in final applications. These pieces of software can be developed by different parties, presenting a significant challenge from the HCI perspective. Semiotic Engineering (SemEng) views HCI as computer-mediated communication between designers and users at interaction time. In the PaaS context, several designers communicate with PaaSE's users (developers). In this paper, we apply SemEng concepts to analyze diverse software artifacts involved, showing evidence of communication breakdowns between designers and users. Our goal is to provide a better understanding of existing metacommunication processes in PaaSE, offering specific suggestions to emphasize communication boundaries.","PeriodicalId":345266,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 15th Brazilian Symposium on Human Factors in Computing Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131005667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
