Abstract :
ISISEMD project aims to provide a pilot of intelligent system to support independent living of persons with cognitive problems or mild dementia. The primary user of the system is the elderly but the services are also designed to support caregivers and relatives in patients daily care. Services and user scenario are analyzed together with four end-user organizations that participate in the project team. The solution is composed by different systems already available on the market, but not specifically focused on dementia management. All the systems are integrated under the ISISEMD platform that manages common functionalities (eg. login, reporting...) and the web interface for different users, too. Privacy and security are considered and the consortium assured these requirements by adopting commercially available solutions and compliance with all the applicable national and international regulations. Moreover, a market and business analysis is made before starting with the validation test.
