A context-aware environment for independent living elders1

چکیده
Elder care poses an increasingly demanding issue that every aging society has to address. The notion of Ambient Assisted Living aims to solve the issue by promoting the idea of ageing at home through innovative ICT technology. The core technology relies on the real-time identification of occupant’s status and prompt notification to supporting service providers before pertinent measures can be taken. This study proposes an enabling solution that converts general household setting into a context-aware environment geared for elder care: normal activities are automatically updated at Facebook news feed, and alerting conditions are instantly notified to emergency contact by Google Cloud Messages.

Context-aware Environments for Independent Living
The range of pervasive computing technology available for use in healthcare continues to evolve, allowing for an increasing variety of wireless sensors, devices, and actuators to be cost effectively deployed in smart, context-aware environments. One area that is of compelling interest for the application of this technology is independent living of the elderly. An independent living environment ...
متن کاملA semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...

متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
متن کاملResource - Optimized Ambiguous Context Mediation for Smart Healthcare
Ubiquitous (or smart) healthcare applications envision sensor rich computing and networking environments that can capture various types of contexts of patients (or inhabitants of the environment), such as their location, activities and vital signs. Such context information is useful in providing health related and wellness management services in an intelligent way so as to promote independent l...
