RT book part T1 ADEPT Framework: Optimizing Data Flow in Dynamic Environments for Ambient Assisted Living A1 Balderas Díaz, Sara A1 Guerrero Contreras, Gabriel José A2 Ingeniería Informática K1 Ambient Intelligence K1 Ambient Assisted Living K1 Edge Computing K1 Adaptive Systems K1 Sensor Networks AB The ADEPT framework integrates Ambient Intelligence (AmI) technologies into Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) and Ubiquitous Computing to improve the quality of life for the elderly and those needing special care, particularly as populations in developed nations age. ADEPT addresses the complexities of data transmission and gathering within dynamic networks by utilizing edge computing for near-source data preprocessing, which enhances responsiveness and reduces network load. Its effectiveness is validated through simulations focusing on nursing home scenarios using the ns-3 network simulator and BonnMotion. The framework’s architecture facilitates efficient data handling by dynamically managing and prioritizing data flow through its network of nodes. Evaluations show that data prioritization significantly boosts data gathering success rates across different network setups, underscoring ADEPT’s potential to enhance data management in AmI applications and meet the changing needs of AAL environments.
