Model-driven development of accessible software: a systematic literature review

The lack of accessibility in software products is a problem, which is difficult to solve, due to the absence of accessible support tools and the scarce training of software professionals in accessibility issues that exist today, which has influenced the development of inaccessible programs, causing a large number of people, including those with some type of disability difficulties to interact with applications easily and quickly. Given this problem, model-driven development has attracted the attention of the accessible software development community, due to its ability to generate code from models. Thus, in the present work, a systematic review was carried out to investigate and analyze the studies related to model-driven development of accessible software, including the revision of standards directly related to software accessibility and the qualitative evaluation of the different existing proposals.
