Abstract

People with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) often experience a slight -but noticeable- decrease in their mental abilities, greater than other people of the same age, but not so severe as to interfere with their normal daily life and activities. MCI currently affects between 8 and 37% of people over 65 and, according to the latest findings, people with MCI are more likely to develop dementia. This paper introduces SAMoA: a self-adaptive framework aimed at helping elderly people suffering from MCI and their caregivers. SAMoA includes two self-adaptive mobile applications allowing to monitor the mobility of MCI elderly people, warning their caregivers when they leave their (previously defined) safe zones or change their daily mobility routines.
