Iot-Based Home Care System: Network Architecture, Service Functionality, and Prototype Implementation(2/2)

With the rapid development of innovative information technologies and applications, the integration ofvarious ICT technologies leads to the development of smart city, thereby enhancing economic growthmomentum. Taiwan (R.O.C) is widely known in the world for high-level development of networkinfrastructure and ICT industries. Through the research program, we expect to cooperate with scholars inSoutheast Asia areas and then team up a research group for advanced research in ICT fields.This project considers the practical demand of Southeast Asian people as a result of reviewing differentapplications together with some of academic researchers in Kasetsart University, Thailand. With their efforts,we identify a new topic, as titled “IoT-based Home Care System: Architecture Design, Service Functionalityand Prototype Implementation,” which is a new generation of smart home care system that its services andcapacities will be augmented by the Internet of Things (IoT). Following our consensuses on the futuredevelopment of digital lifestyle, our study will take in three major components & specifications regardingIoT technologies, including (a) Advanced network architecture with IoT support, (b) Home care servicefunctionality and (c) Proof-of-concept prototype implementation with home care scenarios. All these majorcomponents & specifications will be proceed year by year so that the developed system can be extended froma single home care system to a hierarchical community-based home care system. We expect to exhibit somedemonstration cases regarding the home care scenario finally.
