Abstract:
Personalized interventions that empower users through pertinent and reliable information - alongside ubiquitous and user-friendly services, interfaces and products -can provide users with the opportunity to adopt healthy lifestyle choices, which improve quality of life and help prevent a vast number of chronic diseases. This paper would like to present the case of the Mobile Medical Monitoring (M3) project as representative of the work carried out by the eServices for Life and Health research unit alongside the City of the Future Living Lab; this project was based on an eService design approach of deploying innovative ICT (Information and Communication Technology) and multi-device based services. The focus of this paper is therefore to explore the Engineering AwarenessTM approach alongside the co-creation living lab methodology.
