Abstract
The main goal of this Chapter is to introduce SAM, an integrated architecture for concurrent activity recognition, planning and execution. SAM provides a general framework to define how an intelligent environment can assess contextual information from sensory data. The architecture builds upon a temporal reasoning framework operating in closed-loop between physical sensing and actuation components in a smart environments. The capabilities of the system as well as possible examples of its use are discussed in the context of the PEIS-Home, a smart environment integrated with robotic components.

Challenging Issues of Ambient Activity Recognition for Cognitive Assistance
To infer the goals of an observed entity and the action sequence that was planned to achieve those specific goals from the observation of the environmental conditions from the sensor inputs. In order to achieve the goals of an activity, a sequence of actions must be planned. So, activity recognition is also known as plan recognition or behaviour recognition.
