TASK 1 (M1)

The continuous introduction of new interactive computer devices in our homes, offices, cars, places of commerce and tourism, makes it necessary to design a pervasive usability in different contexts of use. This opens the possibility to create in the future migration services, or interactive services that follow the user in his movements and adapt to new devices available in the new environment in which the user finds himself. The human-computer communication therefore aims to be similar, if not equal to communication between humans and leads to the affirmation of the natural interaction paradigm that ensures usability in the very immediate and spontaneous.

Many of technical advancements are introduced in the seventies in the research lab of Xerox Parc . In 1981 appears on the market the first commercial system with the support of direct manipulation: Xerox Star and in 1982 will be followed by the Apple Lisa , and in 1984 by the Macintosh . The graphic screens led to the introduction of devices that facilitate interaction with them: the best known is the mouse , invented in the sixties . Along with screens and mouse was soon clear the need to have available techniques that would allow the work efficiency of users, and then were introduced windowing systems. The first was developed by Xerox Parc and were the Smalltalk and ' Interlisp which were adopted by the Xerox Star, which is by the Apple Lisa. Also born in the seventies to the MIT X Window System .

(c) The Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) is an initiative whose goals are to set accessibility standards for web sites, but these standards are not binding on web developers. If web developers produce web pages and E-Learning tasks that follow the good design principals of the WAI this in itself may not be sufficient to ensure an individual with vision impairment has equal access, as it will still takes them much longer to access the information and resources on the site .

The other software is JAWS, JAWS is a powerful software program designed to work with a speech synthesizer to improve the productivity level of visually impaired employees, students and the casual user.

TASK 2 (M2)

Advantages of using colors on the interface is that it distinguishes each n every mail. User can sort the urgent, important, confidential, social, or any uniqueness of each mail by setting the color to the respective uniqueness. This way the sorting of the email becomes a lot easier.

Disadvantage is that, some of the users do not like colors in their mailing system. They do not need any sort of unprofessional look if they are working in a professional environment. Some people can be color blind and they cannot differentiate the colors so its of no use for them.

You can use the HDR-purpose compressor to compress the dynamic range of a layer with an HDR footage item as its source. This allows you to use tools do not support ...
