TI  - Integrated Broadband Communication (IBC) requirements of people with special 
      needs.
PG  - 137-49
AB  - In order to make the benefits of the Integrated Broadband Communication (IBC) 
      services available to the largest possible part of the population, special 
      attention should be given to user groups with special needs, such as elderly and 
      handicapped people. For some of these groups the IBC services will facilitate 
      their members socio-economic integration and offer them the opportunity to 
      satisfy some of their everyday needs (e.g. video-telephony for the inter-personal 
      communication of hearing impaired people). For some other categories (e.g. people 
      with motor or sensory impairment), special design considerations are needed at a 
      very early stage of technical development, in order to ensure that they are not 
      prevented from using future sophisticated telecommunication services (e.g. by 
      incorporating appropriate man-machine interaction techniques in general purpose 
      terminals, adapting the user interface of terminals, etc.). This paper gives an 
      overview of the work that is currently taking place within the framework of the 
      Research and development on Advanced Communication in Europe (RACE) programme.
