Abstract

The high number of people with Cognitive Disabilities (CD) is a serious social issue. A significant number of workers in the society provide care to family members with CD. The working caregivers either need to reschedule their working hours or spend less time with their elders. This article proposes PAIR, a Personal Ambient Intelligent Reminder that is designed to assist subjects with CD, their caregivers and the health professionals in an intelligent environment. Its goal is twofold: i) to create schedules that support complex temporal relationships between activities; ii) to generate a set of rules as a reminder agent to be included in an ambient intelligent environment in order to remind the patients and caregivers about the daily activities of the patient.
