The technological standards for the Digital Home play a key role in providing entertainment services but also Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) services for the elderly. Both kind of services are multimedia and share the Digital Home infrastructure or Smart Home Ecosystem. This Ecosystem is made up of a growing number of devices that communicate with other local or remote devices.
