Over the last decade a number of research areas have contributed to the concept of advanced intelligent environments. In this book leading researchers cover all the key topics in the field of intelligent environments including human-computer-interaction.

Over the last decade a number of research areas have contributed to the concept of advanced intelligent environments, these include ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing, embedded intelligence, intelligent user interfaces, human factors, intelligent buildings, mobile communications, domestic robots, intelligent sensors, artistic and architectural design and ambient intelligence. Undeniably, multimodal spoken language dialogue interaction is a key factor in ensuring natural interaction and therefore of particular interest for advanced intelligent environments. The book covers all the key topics in the field of intelligent environments from a variety of leading researchers.
