Scope:

The International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
for Ageing Well and e-Health aims to be a meeting point for those that study
and apply information and communication technologies for improving the
quality of life of the elderly and for helping people stay healthy,
independent and active at work or in their community along their whole life.
ICT4AWE facilitates the exchange of information and dissemination of best
practices, innovation and technical improvements in the fields of
age-related health care, education, social coordination and ambient assisted
living. From e-Health to intelligent systems, and ICT devices, this will be
a point of interest for all those that work in research and development and
in companies involved in promoting the well-being of aged people, by
providing room for industrial presentations, demos and project descriptions.


ICT4AWE 2016 will be held in conjunction with CSEDU 2016.
