ABSTRACT
Today, there is a growing interest for a combination of intelligent applications and assistive mechanisms, which aims to cover the needs of the elderly persons/patients living alone. We focus on the design and implementation of a distributed Information System used to support the elderly persons/patients at home. First, user requirements are captured, then the architecture of a distributed Information System (IS) is given, and eventually functions of the IS and the role of people involved into the system are discussed. We use new technologies and tools to implement a prototype of a low cost "smart" home, and eventually some conclusions are given.
