Smartphones are widely accessed by all genders, ages, and statuses with the increasing use rate of older adults. When people grow up to older adults, they meet physical declines such as blurred vision, tremor in hands, and arms, slowness of movement, or postural of a humpback. These age-related conditions affect how they live and use the smartphone. However, some seldom go out for older adults' activities due to their physical impairment and diseases. They might have lower competencies than normal older adults. In this article, the test was conducted on 26 homebound older adults. The current investigation was concerned with their competencies of vision, hearing, touching, and memorizing to find appropriate average results for them. We found the scores value regarding font size, color contrast, icon size, a touching point on each button on the screen, keyboard's size, scrolling area, etc., which they can perform effectively on the smartphone. The main findings render a significant and unique contribution to the design community to use it as a guideline or standard for every designer who wants to design assisted technology by using a touch screen interface for home-bound older adults to conveniently access and efficiently use. Further, it also helps to improve the quality of life among older adults.

Towards the Design of a Formal Verification and Evaluation Tool of Real-Time Tasks Scheduling of IoT Applications

et al. 2019

Real-Time Internet of Things (RT-IoT) is a newer technology paradigm envisioned as a global inter-networking of devices and physical things enabling real-time communication over the Internet. The research in Edge Computing and 5G technology is making way for the realisation of future IoT applications. In RT-IoT tasks will be performed in real-time for the remotely controlling and automating of various jobs and therefore, missing their deadline may lead to hazardous situations in many cases. For instance, in the case of safety-critical and mission-critical IoT systems, a missed task could lead to a human loss. Consequently, these systems must be simulated, as a result, and tasks should only be deployed in a real scenario if the deadline is guaranteed to be met. Numerous simulation tools are proposed for traditional real-time systems using desktop technologies, but these relatively older tools do not adapt to the new constraints imposed by the IoT paradigm. In this paper, we design and implement a cloud-based novel architecture for the formal verification of IoT jobs and provide a simulation environment for a typical RT-IoT application where the feasibility of real-time remote tasks is perceived. The proposed tool, to the best of our knowledge, is the first of its kind effort to support not only the feasibility analysis of real-time tasks but also to provide a real environment in which it formally monitors and evaluates different IoT tasks from anywhere. Furthermore, it will also act as a centralised server for evaluating and tracking the real-time scheduled jobs in a smart space. The novelty of the platform is purported by a comparative analysis with the state-of-art solutions against attributes which is vital for any open-source tools in general and IoT in specifics.
