| Popis: | Pervasive technologies reflect a whole ecosystem of information and communication environments, in which computer sensors and other equipment are unified with various objects, people, information, and computers, as well as with the physical environment to transform experiences. With the demographic change, big challenges arise for an ageing working population that may be addressed by the creation of facilitating environments, merging professional and personal needs into smooth and nonintrusive solutions that enhance older workers to stay longer and more productive in the workforce. This paper intends to present a bibliographic review on the state-of-the-art research devoted to the analysis of the use of pervasive technology, referring to the identified pros and cons of its use in the work environment. It will also highlight the most relevant questions identified in literature as influencing acceptance and adhesion of these technologies in the professional context. Finally, there are some reflections already expressed on the specific use of pervasive technologies by older workers, although it is understood that very little and non-specific data is available in this context. For this purpose, the development of project SmartWork (Horizon 2020) will provide new and relevant data on this subject. |
