Abstract

Pervasive computing is a field where many different entities come into play. In particular, development of useful applications in the field of pervasive healthcare requires dealing with substantial levels of complexity regarding the management of the pervasive environment where users and applications coexist. Service oriented middleware architectures simplify the task of creating those applications and turn the management of pervasive environments into a productive activity. We present our ongoing approach to the design of such a middleware architecture, known as the Smart Environment Application Architecture.

Keywords: Application software Computer architecture Environmental management Medical services Middleware Personal digital assistants Pervasive computing Robustness Software tools Ubiquitous computing
