Ambient intelligence (AmI) represents a vision of the future in which products and services will be responsive to the user con- text, offering a rich variety of applications in the professional and consumer domains. AmI combines concepts of ubiquitous technology, intelligent systems andadvanceduserinterfacedesignputtinghumansinthecenteroftechnological developments. Starting as the European Symposium on Ambient Intelligence in 2003 the conference has grown to an annual international event that brings together re- searchers and serves as a forum to discuss the latest trends and solutions. Following the publication of early scenarios on ambient intelligence in 2001 by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre, the theme of AmI-11 focused on the “The Road Ahead, Shaping the Next 10 Years.” For this we had two keynote speakers focusing on this theme. On the first day a presentation was given by MargaretMorris, of Intel Research, who in her presentation “Left to Our Own Devices” described the role of mobile phones as gateway to ubiquitous computing. The closing keynote was given by Albrecht Schmidt, who presented “Beyond Ubicomp—Computing Is Changing the Way We Live.” The conference represented many “firsts” for the AmI community; for the first time the conference was held in Amsterdam, a rich and culturally diverse citythatmaintainsthecharmsofanoldcitywhilebeingamodernthrivingworld city. For the first time a special track was held in the area of ambient-assisted living,reflectingthenumberofscientificinvestigationsfocusingonincreasingthe viability of seniors living longer while maintaining quality of life, independently at home. As a new element of the AmI program, a doctoral consortium track combined with an expert panel enabled PhDs to share findings and approaches to research. After a solid review process, 50 papers and 8 workshops were accepted. To ensure the quality of work presented, 63% of regular and late-breaking paper submissionswererejected.Threeindependentreviewerswerematchedbyexper- tise area to the topic of each paper. The Chairs handled borderline cases, and requested additional reviews when needed. A special thanks goes to the dedi- cated work of the 80 ProgramMembers involved in the review panel who came from Asia, Europe, South America and North America, reflecting the spirit of AmI participation. Their names are published in the conference program. Basedonpreviousyears,thereappearedtobeagrowingtrendoffieldstudies, which suggests recognitionof the need to validate new technologies,evaluations and design approaches to ambient systems. The range of papers dealing with VI Preface novel interaction techniques and smart environments and sensing demonstrate the gains to be achieved in real-world settings. A number of late-breaking pa- pers examine the power of ambient systems in terms of affecting human behav- ior, raising issues related to trust and privacy, which were topics touched upon in the conference, but deserve further attention in future research on ambient intelligence. Apart from the main conference we had a record number of workshops or- ganized on the day before the conference. We also had a doctoral colloquium in which PhD students met and discussed their work with each other and a panel of experienced AmI researchers and practitioners. The workshop and the doctoral colloquium papers are published in the proceedings in the Springer’s Communications in Computer and Information Science series. AmI-11 was made possible by contributions from Philips Research, IIP Create, Noldus Information Technology, the City of Amsterdam, Ministry of Economic Affairs through AgentschapNL, the University of Amsterdam and Hogeschool van Amsterdam. In closing we would like to thank the conference Organizing Committee for their dedicated support and all of the paper presenters and conference partici- pantswhocontributedtothe vibrantdiscussions,panels,andworkshopsheldat AmI 2011.
