The Journal of Reliable Intelligent Environments (Springer, ISSN: 2199-4668) issued a Special Issue on the topic: "Reliability on Pervasive Well-being: will it soon become a reality? - State of the art and open issues".
Pervasive well-being includes integrated software and hardware technologies that allow anyone at any time and in any place to monitor their activities, to enforce their habits, to maintain a healthy lifestyle, thus increasing their quality of life. The development of pervasive well-being systems is a challenging task, mainly due to the need of integrating diverse software and hardware components, each of them with a high degree of complexity by themselves.The focus of the call is on the overall systems properties providing reliable solutions to pervasive well-being, and not just the individual sensors or wearable devices. Techniques methods applicable in any step of the design and validation flow are key topics of this Special Issue, being its main objective their application to ensure higher safety, security and reliability levels for IE used in pervasive well-being context, and as a consequence increasing user confidence in them.
