Understanding and Supporting Web Developers: Working Practices and Resources for the Creation and Evaluation of Accessible Websites Understanding and Supporting Web Developers: Working Practices and Resources for the Creation and Evaluation of Accessible Websites David Mark Swallow Doctor of Philosophy University of York Computer Science November 2017 2 Abstract Web developers have a responsibility to develop websites that are accessible and usable by the broadest range of users, including people with disabilities. Despite numerous initiatives over the last two decades to support, encourage and compel developers to fulfil this responsibility, websites continue to exhibit persistent accessibility problems. This programme of research aimed to better understand the difficulties that developers face and to develop the necessary support for them to successfully integrate accessibility into their existing workflows. The first study systematically reviewed 397 web accessibility evaluation studies published over a 15-year period between 1999 and 2014. This showed a persistent occurrence of accessibility problems that does not appear to be improving. The second study followed a contextual design methodology to investigate the working practices of 13 professional developers. This showed how they are hindered, not by limited awareness or concern, but by a lack of knowledge and practical guidance on how to make websites accessible. To understand the nature of their confusion and uncertainty, the third study interviewed 26 professional developers and attempted to elicit their mental models of web accessibility. Their mental models were found to incorporate some, but not nearly enough, knowledge and awareness of accessibility and were based on a conceptual model that prioritises technical conformance over user experience. These findings were embodied in the design and implementation of an accessibility information resource, called WebAIR. The ease of use and effectiveness of WebAIR in supporting the creation and evaluation of accessible websites was evaluated in a series of four studies with both professional and novice developers under increasingly realistic experimental conditions. The resource was well received by participants in each study and, despite concerns over its viability within organisations that place little value on web accessibility, WebAIR was demonstrated to be a usable, pragmatic accessibility information resource. 3 4 Table of Contents Abstract........................................................................................................................ 3 Table of Contents ....................................................................................................... 5 List of Tables .............................................................................................................11 List of Figures ........................................................................................................... 15 Acknowledgements .................................................................................................. 17 Declarations .............................................................................................................. 19 Chapter 1.

Duggan has been approved for the Department of Computer Science Tom Yeh Shaun Kane Date___________ The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. iii Duggan, Erin S. (M.S., Computer Science) ux-rule: A JavaScript Framework for Dynamic and Static Accessibility Testing of Webpages Thesis directed by Professors Tom Yeh and Shaun Kane The Internet is designed to disseminate information to the widest group of people possible. In recent years, this group has been expanded to include people with disabilities through the use of a number of tools. In order to support this, websites need to be designed as accessible and require testing to ensure that they are accessible. The ux-rule framework is an automated accessibility testing framework designed for use by website programmers to do both static and dynamic analysis. It establishes a rule syntax for specifying tests that is based on imperative programming language syntax so that rules can be added or modified easily to meet any other requirements in addition to accessibility guidelines.

    Les écrits de scripteurs peu instruits et le français populaire de Haute-Normandie aux 17e et 18e siècles 1. Introduction1 L’absence de sources pour l’étude de l’immédiat phonique (Koch / Oesterreicher 2001, 615) des époques anciennes est à l’origine, depuis les débuts de la philologie romane, de la méconnaissance de ce vaste secteur de la langue. Nous voudrions apporter un complément au sujet de l’étape préalable à une investigation historique de la langue parlée, qui est celle de la sélection des sources. La présente étude repose sur de la documentation écrite, dont l’interprétation souvent délicate a été soulignée maintes fois. Les textes qui serviront d’exemples pour notre propos proviennent des fonds d’archives familiales des Archives départementales de Seine-Maritime et ont été rédigés par des scripteurs peu instruits2. Nous y avons relevé plusieurs particula- rismes, dont cerque m. “cercle” et dessur prép. “sur”, pour lesquels nous proposons ici une analyse détaillée. Ces deux analyses, ainsi que celles du « relief conceptionnel » (Koch / Oesterreicher 2001, 586) des documents, serviront à déterminer lesquels des textes de scripteurs peu instruits, ceux de l’immédiat graphique ou de la distance graphique, sont à même de nous instruire sur la variation diachronique, diatopique et diastratique du français. 2. Le manuscrit d’Anne Cocqueret 2.1. « Anne Cocqueret, famme de Vinsant Cavellier » Anne Cocqueret exerce le métier de couturière à Rouen au 17e siècle. On ne connaît ni la date ni le lieu de sa naissance. Elle savait manifestement écrire, ce qui est loin d’aller de soi pour une artisane de cette époque (Timmermans 1993 : 56-58).

    HUNGARY: THE ASSAULT ON THE HISTORICAL MEMORY OF THE HOLOCAUST Randolph L. Braham Memoria est thesaurus omnium rerum et custos (Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things) Cicero THE LAUNCHING OF THE CAMPAIGN The Communist Era As in many other countries in Nazi-dominated Europe, in Hungary, the assault on the historical integrity of the Holocaust began before the war had come to an end. While many thousands of Hungarian Jews still were lingering in concentration camps, those Jews liberated by the Red Army, including those of Budapest, soon were warned not to seek any advantages as a consequence of their suffering. This time the campaign was launched from the left. The Communists and their allies, who also had been persecuted by the Nazis, were engaged in a political struggle for the acquisition of state power. To acquire the support of those Christian masses who remained intoxicated with anti-Semitism, and with many of those in possession of stolen and/or “legally” allocated Jewish-owned property, leftist leaders were among the first to 1 use the method of “generalization” in their attack on the facticity and specificity of the Holocaust. Claiming that the events that had befallen the Jews were part and parcel of the catastrophe that had engulfed most Europeans during the Second World War, they called upon the survivors to give up any particularist claims and participate instead in the building of a new “egalitarian” society. As early as late March 1945, József Darvas, the noted populist writer and leader of the National Peasant

    CULTURAL CONSTRUCTIONS: DEPICTIONS OF ARCHITECTURE IN ROMAN STATE RELIEFS Elizabeth Wolfram Thill A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Dr. Monika Truemper Dr. Sheila Dillon Dr. Lidewijde de Jong Dr. Mary Sturgeon Dr. Richard Talbert ABSTRACT ELIZABETH WOLFRAM THILL: Cultural Constructions: Depictions of Architecture in Roman State Reliefs (Under the direction of Monika Truemper) Architectural depictions are an important window into crucial conceptual connections between architecture and culture in the Roman Empire. While previous scholarship has treated depictions of architecture as topographic markers, I argue that architectural depictions frequently served as potent cultural symbols, acting within the broader themes and ideological messages of sculptural monuments. This is true both for representations of particular historic buildings (identifiable depictions), and for the far more numerous depictions that were never meant to be identified with a specific structure (generic depictions). This latter category of depictions has been almost completely unexplored in scholarship. This dissertation seeks to fill this gap, and to situate architectural depictions within scholarship on state reliefs as a medium for political and ideological expression. I explore the ways in which architectural depictions, both identifiable and generic, were employed in state-sponsored sculptural monuments, or state reliefs, in the first and second centuries CE in and around the city of Rome. My work is innovative in combining the iconographic and iconological analysis of architectural depictions with theoretical approaches to the symbolism of built architecture, drawn from studies on acculturation (“Romanization”), colonial interactions, and imperialism.
