ABSTRACT

We consider an indoor assistive living center for elderly care which requires constant monitoring facility without hampering the privacy of the individuals. We use virtualization technique to provide assistance to individuals and monitor them as virtual units of location. We use a distributed server as information provider and handheld computational devices for local assistance for users.
