Abstract

This paper presents an interoperable home automation infrastructure that offers new levels of mobility, accessibility, independence, comfort, and overall quality of life. Building on previous experience with similar systems and existing gaps over the full potential of automated support, both at home and on the move, new concepts and objectives are defined for R&D on smart homes. The paper outlines the proposed integrated and holistic solution, discusses design and development issues, provides indicative evaluation results emerging from a case study conducted in the European ASK-IT project, and concludes by highlighting open issues and future steps.
