  text: This paper describes a multi-national study evaluating the perceived usefulness
    and perceived ease of use of Ambient Intelligence (AmI) applications in office
    environments. In a first step, existing usage scenarios were analyzed to identify
    characteristic functionalities and application domains. The identified core functionalities
    were integrated into a representative and coherent evaluation scenario, which
    was presented to a target user population in a questionnaire-based study. The
    results of the study indicate, that the participants regard the described Ambient
    Intelligence functionalities as rather useful and easy to use. Nevertheless, moderate
    overall ratings for both factors show, that the acceptance of AmI technologies
    is not as high as often argued.
