Parente, Peter and Bishop, Gary (2009): Out from behind the curtain: learning from a human auditory display. In: Proceedings of ACM CHI 2009 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems 2009. pp. 2575-2584.

“In this paper we describe an approach to gathering design requirements for a software auditory display by analyzing user interactions with an ideal partner: a talking human controlling a computer. We explain the potential benefits of studying such unconstrained user interaction before detailing the design and execution of our qualitative evaluation. We report the results of our thematic coding analysis and give examples of each of the seven major user techniques, difficulties, and preferences identified. To conclude the paper, we summarize the application of our results to the design of a software auditory display for common office computing tasks.”

Parente, Peter and Clippingdale, Brett (2006): Linux screen reader: extensible assistive technology. In: Eighth Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies 2006. pp. 261-262.

“The Linux Screen Reader (LSR) project is an open source effort to develop an extensible assistive technology for the GNOME desktop environment. The goal of the project is to create a reusable development platform for building alternative and supplemental user interfaces in support of people with diverse disabilities. In this paper, we highlight some key features of LSR including cascading scripts that tailor the user experience to particular applications and tasks, support for novel methods of input and output (e.g. concurrent spatial audio) suited to the needs and preferences of the user, and the ease and flexibility of extension development.”

Parente, Peter (2004): Audio enriched links: web page previews for blind users. In: Sixth Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies 2004. pp. 2-8.

“Audio Enriched Links provide previews of linked web pages to users with visual impairments. Before a user follows a hyperlink, the Audio Enriched Links software presents a spoken summary of the next page including its title, its relation to the current page, statistics about its content, and some highlights from its content. We believe that such a summary may be a useful surrogate for a full web page, and help users with visual impairments decide whether or not to spend time visiting a linked page. In this paper, we present some motivation for the Audio Enriched Links project. We describe the design and implementation of the current software prototype, and discuss the results of an initial evaluation involving four participants. We conclude with some implications of this work and directions for future research.”
