Description: |
AbstractThe number of elderly is growing also in Finland. As the traditional services are decreasing and net based services are developed, also the elderly need to adapt the new services. However, the elderly have special needs compared to the younger generation, and they need to be considered when designing net services. This study responded to two research problems. First, the special needs of elderly were considered. Second, the special needs of elderly were approached from the developers’ point of view. A light literature review was applied to find state-of-the-art knowledge. see all
