Abstract
While the society of PRC has drawn near to an aging society, more and more people find it difficult to have enough time and energy to look after their aged parents because of the increasingly heavy living burden and social pressures so that rising concerns are made over the health and security of the aged Chinese throughout the whole society. With the booming of so-called "smart cities" in advanced countries, in PRC, experts tend to realize the necessity to construct more "smart senior citizens\´ communities", which, based on intelligent theory and information technology, proves to be more convenient, more comfortable, more smart, more sustainable and more suitable to the trend of social development as a brand new "green" practice of modern communities to support the aged. In this thesis, important concepts corresponding to IT-based smart senior citizens\´ communities are introduced, a new type of management system for smart senior citizens\´ community service is constructed and the important social significance of constructing the IT-based smart senior citizens\´ communities is explored.
