The design and development of flexible applications able to match the many possible user needs and provide high quality user experience is still a major issue. In ambient-assisted living scenarios there is the need of giving adequate support to elderly so that they can independently live at home. Thus, providing personalized assistance is particularly critical because ageing people often have different ranges of individual needs, requirements and disabilities. In this position paper we introduce a solution based on an End-User Development environment that allows patients and caregivers to tailor the context-dependent behaviour of their Web applications in order to facilitate patients' life.

Abstract
The design and development of flexible applications able to match the many possible user needs and provide high quality user experience is still a major issue. In ambient-assisted living scenarios there is the need of giving adequate support to elderly so that they can independently live at home. Thus, providing personalized assistance is particularly critical because ageing people often have different ranges of individual needs, requirements and disabilities. In this position paper we introduce a solution based on an End-User Development environment that allows patients and caregivers to tailor the context-dependent behaviour of their Web applications in order to facilitate patients' life. This is done through the specification of trigger-action rules to support application customization.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
