Abstract

The innovation and development of software systems in the Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) domain have brought huge challenges for academia and software industry as well. Despite the existence of architectural models that can be used as references to build AAL systems, their selection for new AAL projects is a difficult task. In this work, the authors present the state of the art on Reference Architectures (RA) and Reference Models (RM) found through the conduction of a systematic literature review. The authors identified, analyzed, and assessed 24 existing RA&RM for AAL domain, and, as result, the authors spotted interesting research directions that should be further explored to improve existing and future RA&RM and software systems for that domain.
