Abstract

A system and method for providing enhanced accessibility to applications. The system and method capture communication between applications, in which a source application calls, activates, uses the functionality of, or otherwise utilizes a target application. The communication, including the application calls and the relevant context including for example parameters, is captured and the details are analyzed. It is then determined what context or parameters are required for activating the target application. The target application is offered to users of additional applications, in which a context relevant for activating the target applications is determined or created.
