Front Cover; Ambient Assisted Living and Enhanced Living Environments; Copyright; Dedications; Contents; Contributors; Biographies; Preface; Introduction; The Overall Objective of the Book; Organization of the book; Acknowledgments; Glossary; Acronyms; 1 Introduction to the AAL and ELE Systems; 1.1 Introduction; 1.2 AAL/ELE Systems and Applications; 1.3 A Vision for Ambient Assisted Living; 1.4 Challenges and Research Opportunities; 1.5 Conclusions; References; 2 Implanted Wireless Body Area Networks: Energy Management, Specific Absorption Rate and Safety Aspects.

Ambient Assisted Living and Enhanced Living Environments: Principles, Technologies and Control separates the theoretical concepts concerning the design of such systems from their real-world implementations. For each important topic, the book bridges theory and practice, introducing the instruments needed by professionals in their activities. To this aim, topics are presented in a logical sequence, with the introduction of each topic motivated by the need to respond to claims and requirements from a wide range of AAL/ELE applications. The advantages and limitations of each model or technology are presented through concrete case studies for AAL/ELE systems. The book also presents up-to-date technological solutions to the main aspects regarding AAL/ELE systems and applications, a highly dynamic scientific domain that has gained much interest in the world of IT in the last decade. In addition, readers will find discussions on recent AAL/ELE technologies that were designed to solve some of the thorniest business problems that affect applications in areas such as health and medical supply, smart city and smart housing, Big Data and Internet of Things, and many more.
