Semantic Intelligent Space for Ambient Assisted Living

摘要

Today, the research field of assisted living technologies is becoming more and more important. In this paper, an intelligent space framework is going to be presented which can be applied as a framework for assisted living. There are two beneficial properties which can improve the performance of the presented framework. The first is the use of semantic information which increases the flexibility and the autonomy of the framework so that it maximizes the collaboration possibilities between the entities of the intelligent space. The second is the relation to cognitive info-communications which makes it possible to use not only conventional channels in user interaction, but other alternative channels as well, i.e. to represent the user as a complex source and drain of several kinds of information. In this paper, it is described how these properties of the framework can be adopted in this special application field.
