The present invention relates generally to the field of computing, and more specifically, to accessibility associated with user interfaces and computer devices.
Generally, one of the primary ways that users browse, complete tasks, and purchase goods and/or services is by using computer devices to access different applications. For example, online shopping is a form of electronic commerce (e-commerce) that allows consumers to directly buy goods or services from a provider using web browsers and online applications. Specifically, users may find products and services of interest by using a computer device to access programs, such as retailer websites or shopping apps, which allow users to interact with a user interface to browse the website and/or application and purchase products and services of interest. Therefore, usability factors such as ease of use and the presence of user-friendly features associated with computer devices and user interfaces may be considered for determining whether users use and return to a website or application, purchase goods or services from the websites/applications, and/or use particular computer devices to access the websites/applications. As such, usability testing is typically employed for finding problems and improvements to devices and applications.

These and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of illustrative embodiments thereof, which is to be read in connection with the accompanying drawings. The various features of the drawings are not to scale as the illustrations are for clarity in facilitating one skilled in the art in understanding the invention in conjunction with the detailed description. In the drawings:
Detailed embodiments of the claimed structures and methods are disclosed herein; however, it can be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely illustrative of the claimed structures and methods that may be embodied in various forms. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the exemplary embodiments set forth herein. In the description, details of well-known features and techniques may be omitted to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the presented embodiments.
Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to the field of computing, and more particularly, to accessibility associated with user interfaces and computer devices. The following described exemplary embodiments provide a system, method and program product for generating and presenting accessibility resolution models to accessibility problems associated with applications and devices. Therefore, the present embodiment has the capacity to improve the technical field associated with the accessibility of applications and devices by providing accessibility resolutions to accessibility problems based on user behavior patterns. Specifically, the present embodiment may provide accessibility resolution models by detecting user behavior patterns, and generating and presenting the accessibility resolution models based on correlations between the detected user behavior patterns, user groups and subgroups, cognitive impairments and disabilities, accessibility problems, and business loss indicators.
As previously described with respect to usability and accessibility associated with computer devices and user interfaces, usability factors such as ease of use and user-friendly features may be considered to determine whether users use certain computer devices, return to websites and applications, and purchase goods or services from websites/applications. Thus, usability testing is typically employed for finding problems and improvements to computer devices and user interfaces. However, current usability testing techniques do not account for cognitive disabilities and impairments associated with users. Specifically, businesses often attempt to adopt device and application designs without understanding how the designs may be experienced by different users/costumers who may suffer from disabilities and impairments, thereby producing devices and websites/applications that do not satisfy the different user expectations and needs which are not the same for all users.
Therefore, additional factors such as disabilities and impairments, culture, and increase in age may need to be considered when analyzing usability, as well as how such additional factors may correlate with loss of business and sales. For example, accessibility issues associated with user interfaces of online shopping websites and applications may occur due to disabilities and impairments associated with senior citizen consumers, whereby the disabilities and impairments are not recognized and/or not accounted for by the online shopping user interfaces. Therefore, the accessibility issues may lead to senior citizen customers abandoning online shopping transactions, which in turn may lead to decreased sales for businesses. As such, it may be advantageous, among other things, to provide a system, method and program product for determining accessibility deficiencies associated with computer devices and user interfaces by detecting user behavior patterns, and generating and presenting accessibility resolution models based on the detected user behavior patterns. Specifically, the system, method, and program product may detect user behavior patterns associated with applications and devices, identify device and application problems based on the detected user behavior patterns, and provide accessibility resolution models based on correlations between the detected user behavior patterns and business loss indicators.
According to at least one implementation of the present embodiment, user behavior patterns that are associated with user interfaces and computer devices may be detected. Furthermore, based on the detected user behavior patterns, user groups and user subgroups may be generated. Next, accessibility problems associated with the applications and devices may be identified based on the detected user behavior patterns and generated user groups and user subgroups. Then, cognitive accessibility profiles may be generated based on the detected user behavior patterns, the generated user groups and subgroups, and the identified accessibility problems. Next, correlations between the generated cognitive accessibility profiles and business loss indicators may be determined. Then, based on the determined correlations between the generated cognitive accessibility profiles and the business loss indicators, accessibility resolution models may be generated and presented.
The present invention may be a system, a method, and/or a computer program product. The computer program product may include a computer readable storage medium (or media) having computer readable program instructions thereon for causing a processor to carry out aspects of the present invention.
The computer readable storage medium can be a tangible device that can retain and store instructions for use by an instruction execution device. The computer readable storage medium may be, for example, but is not limited to, an electronic storage device, a magnetic storage device, an optical storage device, an electromagnetic storage device, a semiconductor storage device, or any suitable combination of the foregoing.

A network adapter card or network interface in each computing/processing device receives computer readable program instructions from the network and forwards the computer readable program instructions for storage in a computer readable storage medium within the respective computing/processing device.
Computer readable program instructions for carrying out operations of the present invention may be assembler instructions, instruction-set-architecture (ISA) instructions, machine instructions, machine dependent instructions, microcode, firmware instructions, state-setting data, or either source code or object code written in any combination of one or more programming languages, including an object oriented programming language such as Java, Smalltalk, C++ or the like, and conventional procedural programming languages, such as the “C” programming language or similar programming languages. The computer readable program instructions may execute entirely on the user's computer, partly on the user's computer, as a stand-alone software package, partly on the user's computer and partly on a remote computer or entirely on the remote computer or server. In the latter scenario, the remote computer may be connected to the user's computer through any type of network, including a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN), or the connection may be made to an external computer (for example, through the Internet using an Internet Service Provider). In some embodiments, electronic circuitry including, for example, programmable logic circuitry, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA), or programmable logic arrays (PLA) may execute the computer readable program instructions by utilizing state information of the computer readable program instructions to personalize the electronic circuitry, in order to perform aspects of the present invention.

It will be understood that each block of the flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams, and combinations of blocks in the flowchart illustrations and/or block diagrams, can be implemented by computer readable program instructions.
These computer readable program instructions may be provided to a processor of a general purpose computer, special purpose computer, or other programmable data processing apparatus to produce a machine, such that the instructions, which execute via the processor of the computer or other programmable data processing apparatus, create means for implementing the functions/acts specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram block or blocks. These computer readable program instructions may also be stored in a computer readable storage medium that can direct a computer, a programmable data processing apparatus, and/or other devices to function in a particular manner, such that the computer readable storage medium having instructions stored therein comprises an article of manufacture including instructions which implement aspects of the function/act specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram block or blocks.
The computer readable program instructions may also be loaded onto a computer, other programmable data processing apparatus, or other device to cause a series of operational steps to be performed on the computer, other programmable apparatus or other device to produce a computer implemented process, such that the instructions which execute on the computer, other programmable apparatus, or other device implement the functions/acts specified in the flowchart and/or block diagram block or blocks.

In this regard, each block in the flowchart or block diagrams may represent a module, segment, or portion of instructions, which comprises one or more executable instructions for implementing the specified logical function(s). In some alternative implementations, the functions noted in the block may occur out of the order noted in the figures. For example, two blocks shown in succession may, in fact, be executed substantially concurrently, or the blocks may sometimes be executed in the reverse order, depending upon the functionality involved. It will also be noted that each block of the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustration, and combinations of blocks in the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustration, can be implemented by special purpose hardware-based systems that perform the specified functions or acts or carry out combinations of special purpose hardware and computer instructions.
The following described exemplary embodiments provide a system, method, and program product for generating and presenting accessibility resolution models based on user behavior patterns.
According to at least one implementation, user behavior patterns that are associated with user interfaces and computer devices may be detected. Furthermore, based on the detected user behavior patterns, user groups and user subgroups may be generated. Next, accessibility problems associated with the applications and devices may be identified based on the detected user behavior patterns and generated user groups and user subgroups. Then, cognitive accessibility profiles may be generated based on the detected user behavior patterns, the generated user groups and subgroups, and the identified accessibility problems. Next, correlations between the generated cognitive accessibility profiles and business loss indicators may be determined. Then, based on the determined correlations between the generated cognitive accessibility profiles and the business loss indicators, accessibility resolution models may be generated and presented.

It is understood in advance that although this disclosure includes a detailed description on cloud computing, implementation of the teachings recited herein are not limited to a cloud computing environment. Rather, embodiments of the present invention are capable of being implemented in conjunction with any other type of computing environment now known or later developed.
Cloud computing is a model of service delivery for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g. networks, network bandwidth, servers, processing, memory, storage, applications, virtual machines, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction with a provider of the service. This cloud model may include at least five characteristics, at least three service models, and at least four deployment models.
Characteristics are as follows:
On-demand self-service: a cloud consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with the service's provider.
Broad network access: capabilities are available over a network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, and PDAs).
Resource pooling: the provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the consumer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter).
Rapid elasticity: capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time.
Measured service: cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts). Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported providing transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilized service.
Service Models are as follows:
Software as a Service (SaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (e.g., web-based e-mail). The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.
Platform as a Service (PaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including networks, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).
Deployment Models are as follows:
Private cloud: the cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.
Community cloud: the cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (e.g., mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). It may be managed by the organizations or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.
Public cloud: the cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.
Hybrid cloud: the cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds).
A cloud computing environment is service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability. At the heart of cloud computing is an infrastructure comprising a network of interconnected nodes.
