MultiTEA: A model-driven framework for the co-design and automatic generation of applications for ASD users
The use of new technologies to assist and support the needs of people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is increasing. There is many software developments oriented toward this user collective. However, there are hardly any proposals to help developers in the process of creating these applications....

| Resumo: | The use of new technologies to assist and support the needs of people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is increasing. There is many software developments oriented toward this user collective. However, there are hardly any proposals to help developers in the process of creating these applications. In recent years, design and evaluation guidelines are emerging, but there are no approaches that facilitate and automate the generation of this type of systems. This paper proposes a framework for the design and automatic generation of cross-platform applications for ASD users. This proposal follows the Model-Driven Development paradigm, proposes a participatory design approach, and contemplates collaborative co-design phases among the main stakeholders involved (specialists, families, and ASD users). So far, this framework contemplates the development of applications to support planning and emotion recognition, but its extension to a greater number of possible activities is contemplated. The proposal has undergone a preliminary evaluation by therapists and experts in ASD, who have positively evaluated it. |
