“…An interest in developing platforms or solutions open to the integration of devices of many different kinds has been observed, which may be explained by the lack of commercial state of the art care and assistance related platforms. In his work, [101] analyses different existing commercial AAL related platforms and concludes that all of them are proprietary and partially closed where only a limited list of third party sensors can be integrated. In this sense, many studies do not provide enough information on how these technologies are integrated with the rest of the ecosystem components, mainly those which are infrastructure-based which take this process for granted.…”

Technological Ecosystems in Care and Assistance: A Systematic Literature Review

Applying the concepts of technological ecosystems to the care and assistance domain is an emerging field that has gained interest during the last years, as they allow to describe the complex relationships between actors in a technologically boosted care domain. In that context, this paper presents a systematic review and mapping of the literature to identify, analyse and classify the published research carried out to provide care and assistance services under a technological ecosystems’ perspective. Thirty-seven papers were identified in the literature as relevant and analysed in detail (between 2003–2018). The main findings show that it is indeed an emerging field, as few of the found ecosystem proposals have been developed in the real world nor have they been tested with real users. In addition, a lot of research to date reports the proposal of platform-centric architectures developed over existing platforms not specifically developed for care and services provision. Employed sensor technologies for providing services have very diverse natures depending on the intended services to be provided. However, many of these technologies do not take into account medical standards. The degree of the ecosystems’ openness to adding new devices greatly depends on the approach followed, such as the type of middleware considered. Thus, there is still much work to be done in order to equate other more established ecosystems such as business or software ecosystems.

“…One is to enable generic and sustainable solutions, and thus, exploit reusable components from prior technology solutions unrelated to AAL (Spitalewsky et al , 2013). The second is to have a participatory design approach to study the feasibility of creating an open and flexible infrastructure; this facilitates deployment and integration of assisted living devices and applications on heterogeneous platforms (Wagner et al , 2013) or from heterogeneous data (Knaup and Schöpe, 2014).…”

PurposeThe authors analyse the impact of European funding research programmes on the topic of Ambient Assisted Living by considering its status, future context, and the implications for prospective knowledge management.Design/methodology/approachThe authors apply our variation of classical Systematic Literature Review – Systematic Literature Network Analysis, which also includes bibliographic networks – to identify the readership cliques of the associated technological publication outputs.FindingsThe authors’ main conclusion suggests that there was an increase in scientific production on AAL fields just after the start of the two EU funding programmes (2008 and 2014). Three main research directions were identified: activity and vital sign recognition, human-computer interaction and technology acceptance.Originality/valueTo date, previous reviews on Ambient Assisted Livig focus on specific aspects, such as the study of technology. The present review provides a complete overview of Ambient Assisted living technology and it grasps how the European funds have impacted on the development of this technology.

“…Various approaches to create integration frameworks for system operation and device comparison are proposed in (Wagner et al, 2013), (Pawar et al, 2012), (Seeger et al, 2013), (Viswanathan et al, 2012) and (Franke et al, 2013). Open mHealth Architecture, similar to our goal, is proposed in (Estrin and Sim, 2010).…”

“…In order to set a wireless network, a good network supporter is necessary. Just trying to assign the tasks of installation and support to the clinical staff is unfeasible (Wagner et al, 2013). On the other hand, working with frail and elderly patients is not a common skill among the network supporters.…”

The actual clinical use of smart wireless, software-based, mobile medical devices does not meet the recently raised expectations. First, current low level of interoperability calls for setting and enforcing open standards from the device level to the national/global collaboration structure. Second, heterogeneous and frequently changing devices, operating in various natural, technical and human environments, do not match the classical approval model. In addition to a time-limited set of clinical trials, they need a system of continuous quality monitoring. Third, ad-hoc deployment, without dedicated staff with well defined, novel skill sets is not scalable. A proper organizational structure is necessary. In this paper we present a modular software structure and a framework of a system supporting both the direct health care and the continuous quality evaluation. We expose the location of interfaces crucial for assuring multivendor interoperability. We then define a roadmap giving structure to the necessary development effort. The structure we propose should permit to coordinate the actions of independent teams tackling the immense number of multifaceted and interrelated tasks.
