Mosaic-type work support system using touchscreen computers for senior people

Published: 23 February 2013 Publication History

Abstract

Though the challenges posed by aging populations are great, they can be offset to some degree by harnessing the increasing vitality and productivity of senior citizens in the developed world. To improve work opportunities for seniors, we propose a mosaic-type work system, in which elderly human resources are combined to form a single "virtual worker" based on seamless information sharing. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed system using a touchscreen interface for shift work organizations.
