This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the
International Conference on Communication Technologies for Ageing
Well and e-Health, ICT4AWE 2016, held in Rome, Italy, in April
2016. The 8 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and
selected from 39 submissions. The papers present relevant trends of
current research on ageing well and e-health, including: ambient
assisted living, mobile assistive technology, lifestyle engineering
and life quality, electronic health records, security and privacy
in e-Health, smart environments, home care and remote monitoring.
Providing a comprehensive introduction into an overview of the
field of pervasive healthcare applications, this volume
incorporates a variety of timely topics ranging from medical
sensors and hardware infrastructures, to software platforms and
applications and addresses issues of user experience and technology
acceptance. The recent developments in the area of information and
communication technologies have laid the groundwork for new
patient-centred healthcare solutions. While the majority of
computer-supported healthcare tools designed in the last decades
focused mainly on supporting care-givers and medical personnel,
this trend changed with the introduction of pervasive healthcare
technologies, which provide supportive and adaptive services for a
broad variety and diverse set of end users. With contributions from
key researchers the book integrates the various aspects of
pervasive healthcare systems including application design, hardware
development, system implementation, hardware and software
infrastructures as well as end-user aspects providing an excellent
overview of this important and evolving field.

Prolonged life expectancy along with the increasing complexity of
medicine and health services raises health costs worldwide
dramatically. Whilst the smart health concept has much potential to
support the concept of the emerging P4-medicine (preventive,
participatory, predictive, and personalized), such high-tech
medicine produces large amounts of high-dimensional,
weakly-structured data sets and massive amounts of unstructured
information. All these technological approaches along with "big
data" are turning the medical sciences into a data-intensive
science. To keep pace with the growing amounts of complex data,
smart hospital approaches are a commandment of the future,
necessitating context aware computing along with advanced
interaction paradigms in new physical-digital ecosystems. The very
successful synergistic combination of methodologies and approaches
from Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Knowledge Discovery and
Data Mining (KDD) offers ideal conditions for the vision to support
human intelligence with machine learning. The papers selected for
this volume focus on hot topics in smart health; they discuss open
problems and future challenges in order to provide a research
agenda to stimulate further research and progress.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the
third International Conference on Communication Technologies for
Ageing Well and e-Health, ICT4AWE 2018, held in Funchal, Madeira,
Portugal in March 2018.The 10 full papers presented were carefully
reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. The papers aim at
contributing to the understanding of relevant trends of current
research on ICT for Ageing Well and eHealth including the ambient
assisted living.
E-health technologies will play an increasingly important role in
the coming years, as more and more older people will require
medical care and support. Due to the prevalent demographic changes
and the continuously decreasing number of nursing staff and
caregivers, there is an increased need for intelligent medical
technologies, which enable people to live independently at home.
E-Health, Assistive Technologies and Applications for Assisted
Living: Challenges and Solutions reviews existing literature in
assistive technologies and provides suggestions and solutions for
improving the quality of assisted living facilities and residences
through the use of e-health systems and services.
Within the last years a variety of new healthcare concepts for
supporting and assisting users in technology-enhanced home
environments emerged. These so-called smart healthcare technologies
are characterized by a combined use of information and
communication technologies and health monitoring devices in the
home domain. Smart Healthcare Applications and Services:
Developments and Practices provides an in-depth introduction into
medical, social, psychological, and technical aspects of smart
healthcare applications as well as their consequences for the
design, use and acceptance of future systems. The knowledge and
insights provided in this book will help students as well as
systems designers understand the fundamental social and technical
requirements smart healthcare technologies have to meet.
Electronic healthcare technologies support the interaction between
patients and health-service providers, institution-to-institution
transmission of data, and peer-to-peer communication between
patients and health professionals. These technologies promise to
deliver significant improvements in access to care, quality of
care, and the efficiency and productivity of the health sector.
Human-Centered Design of E-Health Technologies: Concepts, Methods
and Applications unites researchers and industry practitioners from
different disciplines to share their domain-specific knowledge and
thereby contribute to a holistic introduction into the area of
human-centered design for e-health applications. The knowledge and
insights provided in this book will help students, as well as
systems designers, to understand the fundamental social and
technical requirements future e-health systems have to meet. By
providing a well-rounded introduction within one single volume,
this book is equally suited as a library reference and upper-level
course supplement, but also represents a first-class resource for
independent study.
This book provides practical guidance and awareness for a growing
body of knowledge developing across a variety of disciplines. This
initiative is a celebration of the Gavriel Salvendy International
Symposium (GSIS) and provides a survey of topics and emerging areas
of interest in human-automation interaction. This set of articles
for the GSIS emphasizes a main thematic areas: mobile computing.
Main areas of coverage include Section A: Health, Care and
Assistive Technologies; Section B: Usability, User Experience and
Design; Section C: Virtual Learning, Training and Collaboration;
Section D: Ergonomics in Work, Automation and Production. In total,
there are more than 600 pages emphasizing contributions from
especially early career researchers that were featured as part of
this (virtual) symposium and celebration. Gavriel Salvendy
initiated the conferences that run annually as Human-Computer
Interaction within LNCS of Springer and Applied Human Factors and
Ergonomics International (AHFE). The book is inclusive of
human-computer interaction and human factors and ergonomics
principles, yet is intended to serve a much wider audience that has
interest in automation and human modeling. The emerging need for
human-automation interaction expertise has developed from an
ever-growing availability and presence of automation in our
everyday lives. This initiative is intended to provide practical
guidance and awareness for a growing body of knowledge developing
across a variety of disciplines and many countries.
