However, the adoption of this standard remains low, leaving much of the web inaccessible to millions of users with an impairment. This paper seeks to understand why this standard has had limited impact. As the European Accessibility Act required businesses to have accessible websites from June 2025 there is growing pressure to make improvements. Moving beyond the technical evaluations that dominated past research, this study looks through a standardisation lens at likely reasons for the private sectors' limited use of the web accessibility standard. We compare accessibility differences per industry quantitatively. We then go back to the literature and look at government practices to identify solutions for web accessibility barriers. This allows us to provide a new perspective on how web accessibility can be improved. Our findings identify two main obstacles: a lack of awareness of the WCAG standard, and difficulties in understanding and implementing it. Implementation is hindered by a shortage of developers with accessibility expertise, and by the absence of sanctions for non-compliance. To conclude, the new law first needs to tackle the barriers to web accessibility and introduce a reasonable risk on sanctions as impetus for change.","PeriodicalId":36697,"journal":{"name":"Journal of ICT Standardization","volume":"13 4","pages":"449-484"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11318150","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145847829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This manuscript presents a semantic-web–enhanced hybrid learning framework for university career planning, embedding ontology-driven modelling and knowledge-graph representation into AI-based recommendation. The framework (i) constructs a domain ontology to organize skills, roles, and behavioral features, (ii) applies natural language processing to curate and semantically align heterogeneous resources, (iii) integrates a gradient-boosted decision tree for skill-to-role matching with a transformer-based sequence model for progression forecasting, and (iv) employs a closed-loop optimization that updates ontology weights and model parameters from longitudinal outcomes. An interpretable recommendation interface provides semantic rationales to support counsellor–student dialogue, while governance measures incorporate privacy-by-design and role-based access control. In deployment with 800 final-year students, the system improved first-round interview hit rate by 27% and six-month job satisfaction by 22% compared with a matched control cohort. Ablation confirms the complementary value of structured academic records and unstructured behavioral logs.

Through a deep reinforcement learning agent, the framework senses network status in real-time and dynamically optimizes encryption algorithms and transmission parameters. It integrates MLWE-1024-based post-quantum cryptographic mechanisms and quantum key distribution technology to build forward-secure channels, uses graph neural networks to construct power entity knowledge graphs for high-precision anomaly detection, and incorporates a blockchain-driven trusted settlement mechanism to ensure transaction data integrity. In practical validation on a provincial power trading platform, this protocol outperformed traditional solutions in key metrics such as quantum security strength, protocol conversion delay, consensus convergence efficiency, and anomaly detection accuracy, demonstrating superior dynamic adaptability, attack resistance, and system compatibility.
