Preface
The2017EuropeanConferenceonAmbientIntelligenceisoneoftheprimevenuesfor
research in ambient intelligence, with experts participating not only from Europe but
from around the globe. After skipping the 2016 edition, we are now providing a fresh
start for the interdisciplinary research community interested in the field of ambient
intelligence and related fields such as Internet of Things, smart cities, etc., and
approachingthemfrompointsofviewrangingfromcomputerscienceandengineering,
to psychology and social sciences to design and architecture. Technologies that were
partofthevisionofambientintelligencearebecomingmoreandmorecommoninour
daily lives, with smart devices recognizing our speech, or intelligent agents providing
us with personalized services, leading to new ways for us to interact with our
environment.
Theformalproceedingsofthis13theditionoftheEuropeanConferenceonAmbient
Intelligence are collected in Vol. 10217 of Springer’s LNCS. The AmI 2017 confer-
ence solicited contributions with the themes of:
– Enabling Technologies, Methods and Platforms
– Objectives and Approaches of Ambient Intelligence and Internet of Things
– From Information Design to Interaction and Experience Design
– Application Areas of AmI and IoT
AmI 2017 attracted the interest of researchers from academia and industry, who
contributed to our varied program on research in ambient intelligence. This year’s
editionreceived29submissionsforthefullandshortpapertrack.Eachofthesepapers
received at least three reviews by members of our Technical Program Committee that
comprised experts from industry, academia, and research organizations. This process
ledtotheacceptanceof16fullpapersandfourshortpapers,withanacceptancerateof
69%. These were accepted for a presentation and are included in this volume.
In addition we include one keynote with accompanying paper by the distinguished
speaker Dr. Norbert Streitz, founder of the Smart Future Initiative. He presented an
inspiring talk on “Reconciling Humans and Technology: The Role of Ambient
Intelligence.”
We observed a trend toward declining conference attendance and a smaller than
expected number of submissions. Nonetheless, the European Conference on Ambient
Intelligence remains highly engaging for the research community, with the respective
editionsoftheproceedingsreceivingalargenumberofchapterdownloads.Thisgives
ushopethattheresearchcommunityandindustrycanbenefitfromthepresentedworks
and get inspiration for future research, designs, and products.
We would like to extend our thanks to the authors who submitted their research to
AmI 2017,contributing tothehigh-quality program. Mostimportantly,thiswouldnot
have been possible without the help of our Technical Program Committee and the
Organizing Committee. Our Program Committee members and several subreviewers

dedicated their time to provide high-quality reviews of the submissions, within a very
tight schedule. Without their help we would not have been able to offer such an
engagingprogram.Wewouldalsoliketothankourhonorarychair,NorbertStreitz,for
his counsel during all phases of making this conference happen.
