CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

+++ SmartHealth'10 +++

Second International Workshop on Smart Healthcare Applications

Workshop at OZCHI 2010
November 23, 2010
Brisbane, Australia

http://www.humtec.rwth-aachen.de/smarthealth2010

***********************************************************************

IMPORTANT DATES

Submission Deadline:  		October 8, 2010

Notification of Acceptance: 	October 20,  2010

***********************************************************************

WORKSHOP THEME

Within the last years a variety of new healthcare concepts for  
supporting and assisting users in technology-enhanced environments  
emerged. While smart healthcare systems can help to minimize hospital  
stays and in so doing enable patients an independent life in a  
domestic environment, the complexity such systems raises fundamental  
questions of behavior, communication and technology acceptance.  
Therefore, this workshop aims to bring together researchers from  
different disciplines to discuss the interrelation of medical,  
environmental, technical, communicative, psychological and social  
factors and their consequences for the design, use and acceptance of  
smart healthcare systems.
