Computers Helping People with Special Needs
The two-volume set LNCS 8547 and 8548 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computers Helping People with Special Needs, ICCHP 2014, held in Paris, France, in July 2014. The 132 revised full papers and 55 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 362 submissions. The papers included in the second volume are organized in the following topical sections: tactile graphics and models for blind people and recognition of shapes by touch; mobility support and accessible tourism; smart and assistive environments: ambient assisted living (AAL); text entry for accessible computing; people with motor and mobility disabilities: AT and accessib...
Intelligent Human Systems Integration (IHSI 2024): Integrating People and Intelligent Systems
Intelligent Human Systems Integration 2024 Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Intelligent Human Systems Integration: Integrating People and Intelligent Systems, Università degli Studi di Palermo, Palermo, Italy, February 22- 24, 2024
Ambient Intelligence
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the third International Joint Conference an Ambient Intelligence, AmI 2012, held in Pisa, Italy, in November 2012. The 18 revised full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 47 (full papers) respectively 14 (short papers) submissions. From a scientific point of view, the papers make a multidisciplinary approach covering fields like computer science, human computer interaction, electrical engineering, industrial design, behavioral sciences, aimed at enriching physical environments with a network of distributed devices, such as sensors, actuators, and computational resources, in order to support users in their everyday activities. From a technological perspective the volume represents the convergence of recent achievements in ubiquitous and communication technologies, pervasive computing, intelligent user interfaces and artificial intelligence.
Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction: Aging and Assistive Environments
The four-volume set LNCS 8513-8516 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction, UAHCI 2014, held as part of the 16th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2014, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece in June 2014, jointly with 14 other thematically similar conferences. The total of 1476 papers and 220 posters presented at the HCII 2014 conferences was carefully reviewed and selected from 4766 submissions. These papers address the latest research and development efforts and highlight the human aspects of design and use of computing systems. The papers thoroughly cover the entire field of human-comp...
Essential Lessons for the Success of Telehomecare
The technology underpinning the various types of Telehomecare available has been current for more than a decade, and the time is right for an evaluation of both the technology and the effectiveness of Telehomecare as a system which contributes to the delivery of care within the home. The field is complex, encompassing multiple applications which monitor things such as task oriented behavior; lifestyle; vital signs; environmental extremes (such as carbon monoxide levels); and passive personal emergency response systems. All of these applications are based upon the collection of data within the home by a device which translates that data into information and transmits it to an external locatio...
Assistive Technology
Points towards the difficulty encountered in research and development carried out by laboratories to reach the users. This book aims at alerting developers so that they pay attention to the outcome of their work. Inventive research and technologies which have a high potential in the field of Assistive Technology are described in this publication.
Advances in Home Care Technologies
An ageing population is burdening social and healthcare services around the world, and thisproblem is likely to get worse as the percentage of older people continues to rise. Manygovernments are already responding to this challenge, and a key element in their strategies is thedevelopment and deployment of computer-based telecare and telehealth technologies to support care athome in a cost-effective manner. Human involvement in care continues to be central, but home caretechnologies can offer reassurance, and support routine aspects, to the benefit of all concerned. This bookprovides an up-to-date overview of key advances in the relevant
Context Sensitive Health Informatics: Redesigning Healthcare Work
Health informatics applications will be a cornerstone of the next generation healthcare delivery system. These applications will support the delivery of safe, patient-centered care, and collaborative care delivery. The complexity of modern healthcare is delivered by many different specialties, to many different patients with complex diseases and comorbidity. A one size fits all approach is not adequate to reach the triple aim of improving the patient experience of care, improving the health of populations, and reducing the per capita cost of healthcare. Health informatics applications must rather be built to be adaptable and sensitive to the complex contexts where they will be used. The heal...
Rehabilitation
This book is a collection of summarized papers and poster presentations from the 4th International Congress Rehabilitation: Mobility, Exercise & Sports, which will be of interest to all those involved in the field of human movement sciences and the rehabilitation professions. Rehabilitation medicine is a relatively young discipline, as is the science of human movement, but both have progressed rapidly from their inception in the latter half of the 20th century to take their current place as important, multi-disciplinary, evidence-based, academic and clinical research subjects.
