OBJECTIVES
==========
As the European population ages, more support is needed with fewer
hands to cater for their needs. There is a significant market
potential for Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) solutions, but adoption is
limited because they require significant resources for implementation.
This fact gives rise to a stringent need for an open technological
platform supporting a wide range of diverse stakeholders (including
end users, developers, service providers, public and private care
providers). Such a platform would provide a standardised approach to
the development of AAL services, thus making it technically feasible
and economically viable to develop AAL solutions.
The realization of such a platform can be achieved by mixing new
development and consolidation of state-of-the-art results from
existing initiatives. This approach not only poses technical
challenges but also raises issues regarding adoption and uptake. For
such an approach to be successful, the establishment of a sustainable
community is mandatory. This workshop is intended as a first step in
this direction. It will provide a forum in which the technical
challenges related to the development of such a platform, the
establishment of a AAL community, and the tools and methods to sustain
such community will be discussed by the interested stakeholders.
WASP 2010 is promoted and supported by the EU FP7 universAAL project
(http://www.universaal.org) whose mandate is to build such community
and platform. The workshop is held in conjunction with the IEEE 12th
International Conference of E-Health, Networking, Applications &
Services (IEEE HealthCom 2010).
We encourage researchers and practitioners within the field of AAL,
smart environments, and distributed systems to attend the workshop and
to discuss first-hand-experiences with other experts.
Workshop Topics Include but are not limited to:
- Experiences and lessons learned from open consolidation processes
on use cases, requirements, architectures, standards, and software
modules
- Experiences and lessons learned in building open platforms and
standard integration
- Experiences and lessons learned in open innovation processes
- Experiences and lessons learned in building developer and user
communities in support of open platforms
- Experiences in developing and deploying AAL services using platforms
- Business models and stakeholder analysis in the AAL domain
- Boundary conditions an open AAL platform needs to adhere to
Submission Guidelines
