Ambient Assisted Living and Enhanced Living Environments Principles, Technologies and Control

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Dobre Ciprian, Mavromoustakis Constandinos x, Garcia Nuno, Goleva Rossitza Ivanova, Mastorakis George

Couverture de l’ouvrage Ambient Assisted Living and Enhanced Living Environments

Ambient Assisted Living and Enhanced Living Environments: Principles, Technologies and Control separates the theoretical concepts concerning the design of such systems from their real-world implementations. For each important topic, the book bridges theory and practice, introducing the instruments needed by professionals in their activities.

To this aim, topics are presented in a logical sequence, with the introduction of each topic motivated by the need to respond to claims and requirements from a wide range of AAL/ELE applications. The advantages and limitations of each model or technology are presented through concrete case studies for AAL/ELE systems.

The book also presents up-to-date technological solutions to the main aspects regarding AAL/ELE systems and applications, a highly dynamic scientific domain that has gained much interest in the world of IT in the last decade. In addition, readers will find discussions on recent AAL/ELE technologies that were designed to solve some of the thorniest business problems that affect applications in areas such as health and medical supply, smart city and smart housing, Big Data and Internet of Things, and many more.

Wearable electronics for elderly health monitoring and active living 11. Cloud-oriented domain for AAL 12. Adaptive Workspace Interface for Facilitating the Knowledge Transfer from Retired Elders to Start-up Companies 13. Tele-monitoring as a Core Component to Enforce Remote Biofeedback Control Systems 14. The role of smart homes in Intelligent Homecare and Healthcare environments 15. Visual Information-Based Activity Recognition and Fall Detection for Assisted Living and eHealthCare 16. End-Users AAL and ELE Platform and Services Testing Survey 17. M2M Communications and their role in AAL

Ciprian Dobre received his PhD in Computer Science in 2008 from the Computer Science Department at the University Politehnica of Bucharest (UPB), Romania. Currently, he holds a permanent position of Associate Professor at UPB, where he teaches classes on Parallel and Distributed Algorithms, Cloud Computing, and others. Ciprian Dobre has early scientific and scholarly contributions in the field of large scale distributed systems concerning mobile applications and smart technologies to reduce urban congestion and air pollution (coordinator of projects MobiWay and TranSys), and context-aware applications (coordinator of CAPIM, projects SPRINT, ONSIDE, HYCCUPS and others), monitoring (project MonALISA), high-speed networking (projects VINCI and FDT), evaluation using modeling and simulation (developer of MONARC 2, coordinator of projects VNSim and Sim2Car), Such contributions led to results beyond the state of the art. Ciprian Dobre was awarded a PhD scholarship from California Institute of Technology (Caltech, USA), and another one from Oracle. His results received one IBM Faculty Award, two CENIC Awards, and three Best Paper Awards. Dr. Dobre has widely published in peer reviewed international journals, conferences/workshops, book chapters and edited books and proceedings in the field: over 100 books, chapters in edited books, articles in major international peer-reviewed journal and in well-established international conferences and workshops. Currently he is local project coordinator for national projects ‘CAPIM - Context-Aware Platform using Integrated Mobile Services’, and ‘MobiWay – Mobility beyond Individualism’. Ciprian Dobre’s research interests involve research subjects related to mobile wireless networks and computing applications, pervasive services, context-awareness, and people-centric or participatory sensing.
