Abstract

A Private Assisted House aims to define a novel care model focusing on the changing needs of people to promote active life expectancy. This raises the need of personalization in the design and development of Smart Home, so starting from users requirements we stress the need of integration suitable to support such changing requirements. In this paper we discuss Private Assisted House integration platform focusing on its conceptual model and reference architecture. The platform is defined around a set of smart objects managed by a home gateway that communicate with a Cloud Center. This organization provide two kinds of processing: (i) local to the house, and (ii) remote. The local processing involves events, triggers, commands and automations managed directly for the gateway. The remote processing implies communication from the house to the Cloud Center that can provide intelligence to the house using high-level applications that use data correlation to perform specific tasks.
