An Access Control Model to Facilitate Healthcare Information Access in Context of Team Collaboration
(Doctoral Dissertations at the University of Agder; no. 208, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The delivery of healthcare relies on the sharing of patients information among a group of healthcare professionals (so-called multidisciplinary teams (MDTs)). At present, electronic health records (EHRs) are widely utilized ... -
Accessibility of eGovernment Web Sites: Towards a Collaborative Retrofitting Approach
(Lecture Notes in Computer Science;6179, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2010)Accessibility benchmarking is efficient to raise awareness and initiate competition. However, traditional benchmarking is of little avail when it comes to removing barriers from eGovernment web sites in practice. Regulations ... -
Accessibility of Mobile Devices for Visually Impaired Users: An Evaluation of the Screen-reader VoiceOver
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A mobile device's touchscreen allows users to use a choreography of hand gestures to interact with the user interface. A screen reader on a mobile device is designed to support the interaction of visually disabled users ... -
Accessible eGovernment services : developing a parental benefit calculator with improved usability
(Master thesis, 2007)An online parental benefit calculator offered earlier by the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Organisation (NAV) gave only simple estimates on how long a mother or father could take the parental leave and did not support ... -
Accurate Graph Filtering in Wireless Sensor Networks
