Abstract
Motivation: It is often challenging to know which government web sites are working well and which have significant potential for improvements. There are very few unified ways of measuring such services, and these are often based on manual evaluations which are both costly and bias prone. The expected expected outcome from this Ph.D. can be divided into two main categories: • A specification and implementation of a tool which automatically benchmarks web sites ac-cording to accessibility, transparency, efficiency and impact. Several of the tests will utilize so-called learning algorithms − algorithms which, based on some input or training data, will be able to perform tests which typically are done manually. • Empirical results of accessibility, transparency, efficiency and impact, retrieved automatically using the implementation. The significance will be the possibility to easily benchmark local government web sites. This will be an important tool for both raising and maintaining awareness on important topics such as accessibility, transparency efficiency and impact as well as identify good practices. Accessibility: Web sites are often created in such a way that they limit some disabled users, such as blind people, from using the web sites. Measuring web accessibility
