| Abstract |
Since 90's information technology(IT) has been developed rapidly owing to the government's investment of infrastructures related to electrical information and communication. Especially, in case of housing, smart home evolved from HA(Home Automation) and HN(Home Network) emerged in the early 2000's. However, smart home researches have been dominated by the 'Technology Push' style initiatives although the ultimate goal of the studies on smart home is to maximize the usability of such technologies by guaranteeing their effective functionalities in residential spaces and by adapting them to diversified user requirements. Namely, smart home researches for 'Demand Pull' style are needed. For this, investigations on the integration of resident-centered architectural space with fundamental IT technologies are required. As the first step of such researches, the establishment of service scenario development method as well as the scenarios themselves could be pursued by analysing resident's life style in various perspectives, collecting systematic scenario development frameworks, and exploring optimum method adaptive to our socio-cultural contexts. At last, the final result is proposing a new service scenario development framework and service scenarios for silver housing. |
