Title- iLibras: Using Assistive and Collaborative Technology to Support the Communication of Deaf People.
Abstract- Communication is a way to share information, develop culture and interact in society. Computing technologies and Collaborative Systems have contributed to improving the access to communication for people in an inclusive process. This research is an extension of the article “iLibras as a Facilitator in the Effective Communication of the Deaf: A Mobile Cooperative Tool” [1]. This research presents an approach to support the communication of deaf people and Libras communicators through collaborative and mobile computing tools. The research methods Design Science Research (DSR), Interaction Design (ID), User-Centered Design (UCD) and Participatory Design (PD) are adopted in this work. Therefore, it was possible to explore knowledge to understand the users better as well as to build computing resources to facilitate the communication with deaf people.
Index Terms- Accessibility, social inclusion, mobile devices, assistive technology, deaf, LIBRAS, design science research, collaborative systems.

Title- Supporting the Dialogue of People with Intellectual Disabilities Through Augmentative and Alternative Communication.
Abstract- Some people with intellectual disability also present communication deficiencies. Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is a strategy to deal with such deficiencies. AAC exploits more than one communication channel to send messages. In this paper we develop a collaborative system that uses AAC in tablets to support the dialog of these people. This research uses Design Science Research, Participatory Design and the test case of Nielsen to evaluate the solution. The results show that the system allows to accomplish the communication and it can be used in classrooms to improve the educative ways of people with intellectual disability.
