Exploring Platform Adoption in the Smart Home Case
Hannes Kuebel,Ruediger Zarnekow +1 more
TL;DR: This work explores the determinants for wide-spread adoption of SH platforms informed by 21 experts from 19 companies and yields a theoretical model on SH platform adoption, which provides a basis for further research on platform ecosystems and managerial implications on platform design and governance in the SH field.

The Impact of the Internet of Things on Business Model Innovation – Insights from the Electric Bicycle Industry
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method to solve the problem of "uniformity" and "uncertainty" in the context of education.iii.iiiiii.

Benefits of Dynamically Reconfigurable Activity Recognition in Distributed Sensing Environments
TL;DR: This work evaluates potential energy savings and performance gains of dynamic reconfiguration in a case study using 28 sensors recording 78 activities performed within four settings and shows that reconfigurations improves recognition performance and reduces energy consumption while reducing energy consumption when turning off unneeded sensors.
Book ChapterDOI
Architecture Pattern for Context-Aware Smart Environments
TL;DR: The ability of pervasive systems to perceive the context of the surrounding environment and act accordingly proves to be an enormously powerful tool for raising immediate users' satisfaction and helping them to increase their own awareness and act in a more informed way.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of aberrant behaviour in home environments from video sequence
TL;DR: This work has validated the proposed concept of video based analysis for the detection of repetitive activities and has the ability to measure the amount of activity/inactivity within the scene during a given period of time.

Elements of information theory
Thomas M. Cover,Joy A. Thomas +1 more
TL;DR: The author examines the role of entropy, inequality, and randomness in the design of codes and the construction of codes in the rapidly changing environment.

Wireless sensor networks: a survey
TL;DR: The concept of sensor networks which has been made viable by the convergence of micro-electro-mechanical systems technology, wireless communications and digital electronics is described.

The Computer for the 21st Century
TL;DR: Consider writing, perhaps the first information technology: The ability to capture a symbolic representation of spoken language for long-term storage freed information from the limits of individual memory.

Compression of individual sequences via variable-rate coding
Jacob Ziv,A. Lempel +1 more
TL;DR: The proposed concept of compressibility is shown to play a role analogous to that of entropy in classical information theory where one deals with probabilistic ensembles of sequences rather than with individual sequences.
