This book aims to educate the non-expert reader to the problems posed by this new research area. To do so, it summarizes the contributions of many experts in the field. Moreover, this book covers the key areas of computer science concerned with the emergence of ambient intelligence (eg, interaction, middleware, networks, information systems, etc.). It even slightly goes beyond the borders of computer science with contributions related to smart materials or ethics. This book also covers a broad spectrum, with some chapters dedicated to the presentation of basic concepts and others focusing on emerging applications in various fields such as health, transport or tourism.
