Full Title
Large-scale Web Accessibility Evaluations
Description

With QualWeb, we propose the characterisation of the Portuguese Web from an accessibility point-of-view. This characterisation will provide answers to the current state of accessibility of the Portuguese Web both from general and personalised points-of-view (e.g., how accessible is for a blind person vs. for a deaf person). Based on this characterisation we propose a set of accessibility services for end users, including the visualisation of the different properties obtained for the characterisation process, as well as a Web search service on top of the Portuguese Web that takes into account accessibility into Web page ranking processes.
