Smart home based patronage solution

Abstract

Smart Home deployment remains within the early adopter phase. In spite of relatively moderate penetration of the patronage and healthcare functionality in the already installed devices, this feature is considered as one of the highest potential drivers for Smart Home deployment. We suggest the complex approach for medical assistance based on Smart Home usage. We propose also how to organize the human activities in response for received alarms. Several scenarios are discussed to demonstrate the alarm response procedures. A patronage service is considered as one of the actors in these scenarios.
