Smart Homes (SH) offer a promising approach to assisted living for
the ageing population. Yet the main obstacle to the rapid
development and deployment of Smart Home (SH) solutions essentially
arises from the nature of the SH field, which is multidisciplinary
and involves diverse applications and various stakeholders.
Accordingly, an alternative to a one-size-fits-all approach is
needed in order to advance the state of the art towards an open SH
infrastructure. This book makes a valuable and critical
contribution to smart assisted living research through the
development of new effective, integrated, and interoperable SH
solutions. It focuses on four underlying aspects: (1) Sensing and
Monitoring Technologies; (2) Context Interference and Behaviour
Analysis; (3) Personalisation and Adaptive Interaction, and (4)
Open Smart Home and Service Infrastructures, demonstrating how
fundamental theories, models and algorithms can be exploited to
solve real-world problems. This comprehensive and timely book
offers a unique and essential reference guide for policymakers,
funding bodies, researchers, technology developers and managers,
end users, carers, clinicians, healthcare service providers,
educators and students, helping them adopt and implement smart
assisted living systems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th
International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing and Ambient
Intelligence, UCAmI 2014, held in Belfast, UK, in December 2014.
The 57 papers presented together with 7 papers of the workshop
AmIUA 2014, 8 papers of the workshop IoT 2014, 7 papers of the
workshop EUSPAI 2014, and 6 papers of the workshop VSS 2014 were
carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The
papers are grouped in topical sections on key application domains
for ambient intelligence, human interaction in ambient
intelligence, ICT instrumentation and middleware support for smart
environments and objects, adding intelligence for environment
adaption, and security and privacy issues in AAL.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th
International Workshop on Ambient Assisted Living, IWAAL 2014, held
in Belfast, UK, in December 2014. The 42 full papers presented with
12 papers of the workshop WAGER 2014 and 10 papers of a special
session HTA were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous
submissions. The focus of the papers is on following topics: ADL
detection, recognition, classification; behavioural changes,
coaching and education; AAL design and technical evaluation;
expression, mood and speech recognition; health monitoring, risk
prediction and assessment; localization; and user preferences,
usability, AAL acceptance and adoption.
