Ageing population: facts
• In absolute terms, the number of older persons has tripled over the last 50 years and will be more than triple again over the
next 50-year period to reach nearly 2 billion in 2050.
• Of all world regions, Europe has the highest proportion of population aged 65 or over;
only Japan has a similar age structure.
By 2050 the 65+ population will represent the 28% of the overall population in Europe
(currently it is 16% in the EU15).

The ageing of the population is changing also the workforce sce- nario in Europe:
currently the ratio between working people and retired ones is equal to 4:1; drastic reduction of this ratio up to 2:1 in 2050.

The elderly society barriers
– Major deficiencies in assistance to the elderly in the transportation modes, hampering their social and working activities.
– Lack of appropriate retraining, lifelong learning activities, and tele-working infrastructure, causing unemployment among the senior workers or in any case problems in prolonging working life.
– Social isolation is a common problem for senior people
The consequences of ageing population present enormous challenges and opportunities for ICT
In addition to the age-related physical and cognitive problems, barriers to independence affecting the lives of elderly people include:

ApproachLevel 4: Personal assistance where individual adaptation and individual assistive technology are not adequate.
Level 1: Universal design should cover the needs of as many as possible.
Level 2: Adaptation for groups with identical needs for adaptation.
Level 3: Individual adaptation and individual assistive technology

The future of the services
Open architecture for Accessible Services Integration and Standardisation
15
OASIS Mission StatementOASIS - a Large Scale Integrated Project partially funded by the European Commission - aims to develop an open and innovative reference architecture, that will allow plug and play and cost-effective interconnection of existing and new services in all domains required for - the independent and autonomous living of older people and
- their enhanced Quality of Life.

4th level: Worldwide OASIS industrial forum
27
Standardisation (1/2)• World-wide OASIS Industrial Forum aims to:
– promote the OASIS Reference Architecture through standardisation,
– manage the expansion of the OASIS COF by reviewing and accepting on a 6-month basis newly proposed ontologies and services connected temporarily at the lab-test environment of OASIS for at least 3 months,
– maintain and upgrade the Ontology Management, AMI and Interaction Tools of the OASIS System.
28
This Industrial Forum will be an open board without selection criteria. Any industry that wants to adopt, promote and expand OASIS Architecture will be welcome (with a small fee). Incentives of participation for the Industries include:
– Free use of WP1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 tools for connections of services to OASIS Architecture.
– Introduction to a rich world of services and sites for the new member services without having to change their Architecture.
– Ability to influence the OASIS Architecture expansion.– Intercommunication and interoperability with other ventors
services.
