Practices and applications in ambient and intelligent information systems

摘要

Ambient systems refer to electronic systems that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people [1]. The general aim of ambient systems is to provide an environment wherein computing devices will become invisibly embedded into the environment and interact with their environment in a seamless, trustworthy, and natural manner [2]. Ambient intelligence system research builds upon advances in sensors and sensor networks, the Internet of Things (IoT), pervasive computing, and artificial intelligence and have experienced tremendous growth in the last few years [3,4].
