The technology developments enabled devices with more processing power, longer battery life and more advanced sensor capabilities. Internet of Things (IoT) is a phenomenon that allows seamless interconnection of very small devices over Internet; bringing new opportunities for AAL solutions. AAL systems equipped with IoT devices will generate vast amount of data in short time, thus a big data problem to mangle. This study proposes a simulation infrastructure that allows researchers to create their own AAL scenarios without real devices, and a system architecture to tackle the big data problem that is inferred by utilization of IoT in AAL systems. In order to understand feasibility of the architecture we conduct a performance experiment, in which we increase the number of messages that the system can handle per second. The resulst of the experiment are promising.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAmbient-Assisted LivingInternet of ThingsBig dataKafkaComplex-event processingStream processingConference Object94Q489187WOS:000428954100014N/A
