Monitoring Technologies for Buildings Equipped with Ambient Assisted Living

The objective of this study is to provide an overview of current developments in monitoring technologies in buildings equipped with ambient assisted living technologies, as well as a short summary of the challenges facing the building industry and trends in future developments. A systematic mapping approach was used as a basis for describing the current state-of-the-art. An initial search of three databases provided more than 3000 articles, of which 610 were selected as relevant to the study once duplicates were removed and a screening process applied using inclusion and exclusion criteria based on titles and abstracts. Keywording was carried out in order to address research questions relevant to the study.
