The document discusses ambient intelligence in smart homes. It outlines a smart intervention framework that aims to improve on rule-based automation by considering user control and customization. Two case studies are described that involve occupancy and sleep detection and optimal energy conservation. Design cases look at adaptive lighting to support circadian rhythms and adaptive HVAC systems for acclimatization. A new design model is proposed that takes a user-centered approach with hybrid automation, reduced latency, and modularity.

3. Beyond the typical Smart Home
• The automation Challenge
– Diffucult to manage
– User’s deservation
– User control > rule-based control
• Design Considerations
– Trust and Customization issues
– Factors that influence the efficiency
• Cost of being wrong
• Appropriateness of smart intervention
