Safeguards In A World Of Ambient Intelligence: Outline Of A Research Agenda On The European Level, Michael Friedewald
Safeguards In A World Of Ambient Intelligence: Outline Of A Research Agenda On The European Level, Michael Friedewald
Michael Friedewald
Ambient Intelligence is a vision of the future information so- ciety stemming from the convergence of ubiquitous computing, ubiqui- tous communication and intelligent user-friendly interfaces. Beyond the possible benefits that are associated with this vision, it also requires a proper balance of a complex diversity of interests and values. These are related to access to information, protection of the individual sphere, trust, security, protection against discrimination, protection of identity, free speech, protection against intrusions by public and private actors and so on. The design of such a balance demands an approach which is not only driven by one or two …

Rethinking Regional Innovation And Change: Path Dependency Or Regional Breakthrough?, Gerhard Fuchs, Philip Shapira
Philip Shapira
Rethinking Regional Innovation and Change is an edited volume bringing together papers from leading international scholars in the field of regional development and policy. Contributors to the book examine the interactions between path-dependent developments, institutions, and governance structures in influencing regional innovation capacity. The invariably complex interrelationships between technical and industrial development paths and regional institutions are explored, using cases from both highly developed and lagging regions. The book offers an assessment of the extent to which regional innovative capacity can be increased by strengthening, re-orientating, or creating institutions and policies and examines opportunities for reflexive practice at the regional …

Ambient Intelligence is a vision of the future information society stemming from the convergence of ubiquitous computing, ubiquitous communication and intelligent user-friendly interfaces. It offers an op- portunity to realise an old dream, i.e. the smart or intelligent home. Will it fulfil the promises or is it just an illusion – offering apparently easy living while actually increasing the complexity of life? This article touches upon this question by discussing the technologies, applications and social implications of ambient intelligence in the home environment. It explores how Ambient Intelligence may change our way of life. It concludes that there are great …
