Accessibility features in the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) help facilitate access to electronic information for people with disabilities. This workshop explores how to create accessible PDF documents, from within Adobe Acrobat and other ...

The evolution in media support within W3C standards has led to the development of HMTL5. HTML5 provides extensive support for audio/video/timed-text within an interoperable browser context.

This workshop examines the impact of HTML5 on research and ...

Separation of Concerns (SoC) is a common principle to reduce the complexity of large software and hypermedia systems. Amongst a variety of approaches, adaptation aspects are a well-known solution to significantly improve SoC in adaptive hypermedia ...

Mobile eBook readers are now commonplace in today's society, but their document layout algorithms remain basic, largely due to constraints imposed by short battery life. At present, with any eBook file format not based on PDF, the layout of the document,...

Marketing flyers, greeting cards, brochures and similar materials are expensive to produce, since these documents need to be personalized and typically require a graphic design professional to create. Either authoring tools are too complex to use or a ...

Highly customized and content driven documents present substantial challenges in producing sophisticated layout. In fact, these are apps that usually look like well-designed documents. A concrete example is e-books. E-books have re-flowing requirements ...

Videos are commonly being augmented with additional content such as captions, images, audio, hyperlinks, etc., which are rendered while the video is being played. We call the result of this rendering "enriched videos". This article details an annotation-...

The annotation of multimodal speech corpora is a particularly tedious task, since annotatable events can be composed of smaller events that span across several modalities (e.g. speech and gesture), which imposes the need to operate on the same data, ...

In this paper, we present a cloud-based collaborative authoring tool called Creaza VideoCloud. This authoring tool offers an extensive set of features for document-based video authoring in the cloud.

The Phillimore Marriage Registers for England were published in the period 1896 to 1922 and have defined a standard layout format for the typesetting of marriage data. However, not all English parish churches had their marriage registers analysed and ...

The design and architecture of MIaS (Math Indexer and Searcher), a system for mathematics retrieval is presented, and design decisions are discussed. We argue for an approach based on Presentation MathML using a similarity of math subformulae. The ...

Hypervideo offers enhanced video-centric experiences. Usually defined from a hypermedia perspective, the lack of a dedicated specification hampers hypervideo domain and concepts from being broadly investigated. This article proposes a specialized ...

In this paper, we explore different ways to publish multimedia documents on the web. We propose a solution that takes advantage of the new multimedia features of web standards, namely HTML5 and CSS3. While JavaScript is fine for handling timing, ...

Many Web-based geographic applications have been developed in various domains, such as tourism, education, surveillance and military. However, developing such applications is a cumbersome task because it requires several types of components (e.g., maps, ...

Automatic layout of tables is useful in word processing applications and is required in on-line applications because of the need to tailor the layout to the viewport width, choice of font and dynamic content. However, if the table contains text, ...

In this paper we present an overview of the challenges to overcome when developing table authoring tools, including a review of logical table models, typographical issues and automated table layout optimization. We present a Table Drawing Tool prototype ...
