CALL FOR PAPERS

International Journal of Ad Hoc and Ubiquitous Computing (IJAHUC)
Special Issue on: “The Smart Digital Home”
----------------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Fong Pong, Broadcom Corporation, California, USA
Assoc. Prof. Jehn-Ruey Jiang, National Central University, Taiwan


A smart digital home refers to a living space with devices that are connected through wired or wireless networks. The connected devices may be sensors, actors, consumer electronics, appliances, mobile and PC devices that cooperate transparently for facilitating living and improving usability in the home. Sensors can capture the and/or detect physical phenomena, like temperature, humidity, illumination, etc., of living environments and notify other devices of the phenomena; actors and other devices can then act according to the phenomena to provide context aware services.


Home care of the old, the young, the sick and the disabled can benefit from smart digital home technologies, by which carers are able to acquire the states of the home and the residents anytime, anywhere and to take proper actions immediately. By the technologies, proper actions can also be triggered automatically in the presence of specific events, such as resident falling, and stove catching fire, etc.


Smart digital home technologies enable working from home, remote education, network shopping, online gaming, etc. High speed broadband network access and all-IP technologies enabled by frameworks of IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), SDP (Service Delivery Platforms), DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), and so on, offer new communication capabilities. We can foresee that innovative smart digital home applications benefiting from high network capabilities will be blooming in the near future. Since a variety of devices presents in a smart digital home, convergent (across all the screens of TVs, PCs, appliances and mobile devices) and personalized user experience is evidently the key for the success of new residential applications.


Subject Coverage:

The goal of this special issue is to bring together the researchers from academia and industry as well as practitioners to share ideas, problems and solutions relating to the multifaceted aspects of the smart digital home. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

‧ Broadband digital home networks
‧ Sensor networks and visual sensor networks for home care
‧ Context-aware intelligent living environments
‧ Continuous or event-driven inhabitation monitoring
‧ Fall detection, posture and activity recognition
‧ Assistive devices for localization and orientation
‧ Decision support algorithms for sensor data analysis
‧ Middleware for interoperability
‧ Convergent and personalized user experience
‧ Fully automated home applications
‧ Energy savvy digital home applications
‧ Entertainment, educational and motivational aids
‧ Security and privacy in smart digital homes
