Abstract

The traditional, evolutionary, computing-centric approach to software development has yielded computerized systems that are inaccessible to a significant percentage of the population due to the complexity associated with their use. To increase the accessibility of systems, we propose a human-centric approach to development that is based on personalization and personal ownership of private information. This paper outlines an extensible peer-to-peer framework in support of a humancentric environment that is configurable by domain experts, such as psychologists or physicians, who are not computer science or computer engineering professionals. The aim of this paper is to provide a description of the high-level architecture of this new human-centric framework.
