  4. Reasons of selection • In most industrialized countries, demographical, structural, and social trends tend towards more and more elderly people and single households, which have dramatic effects on public and private health care, emergency medical services, and the individuals themselves. Humans live longer, mainly because of progress in medical treatment and pharmacies. The increasing average age of the total population and the consequent rise of chronic diseases will result in a dramatic increase of emergency situations and missions within the coming years. • Assisted Living solutions for elderly people using ambient intelligence technology can help to cope with this trend, by providing some proactive and situation aware assistance to sustain the autonomy of the elderly, be helpful in limiting the increasing costs while concurrently providing advantages for the affected people by increasing quality of life. The goal is to enable elderly people to live longer in their preferred environment, to enhance the quality of their lives and to reduce costs for society and public health systems.
