Abstract

A functional design of an interactive Cyber-Physical System (CPS) for people with disabilities and frail elderly people is introduced as an effective method of proactive service in smart space. The scenario-based functional design of CPS has been motivated by open issues, concepts, and framework architecture for resolving inter space interaction issues caused by changes in users' location and environment which is one of key issues in adjusting and re-setting smart environments for the target population. The interactive CPS will be experiencing users' moving around smart spaces as Activities of Daily Living (ADL). When the prospective users want to have their service anywhere they visit in the smart spaces, the interactive CPS will have serial interactions to acquire resources for providing services in continuous and streamlined fashion. These interactions between each smart space provide users with services they need in a new location, where there are no prior settings and where the other users might already occupied and being served.
