The specific technological / scientific objectives to be attained by IS4ALL can be summarised as follows: Consolidate existing knowledge on Universal Access in the context of Information Society Technologies, which is currently dispersed across different international sites and actors, into a comprehensive code of design practice. Translate the consolidated wisdom to concrete recommendations for emerging technologies (e.g., emerging desktop and mobile platforms) in a critical application domain, which is Health Telematics. Demonstrate the validity and applicability of the recommendations in the context of concrete scenarios drawn from an experimental regional Health Telematics network. Promote the Universal Access principles and practice in Health Telematics through a mix of outreach activities which include seminars and participation in major international conferences, concertation meetings, and project clustering events.
