  text: The integration of information, communication, and sensing technologies into
    our everyday objects has created smart environments. Creating the smart artifacts
    that constitute these environments requires augmenting their standard functionality
    to support a new quality of interaction and behavior.A system-oriented, importunate
    smartness approach creates an environment that gives individual smart artifacts
    or the environment itself certain self-directed actions based on previously collected
    information. For example, a space can be smart by having and exploiting knowledge
    about the persons and artifacts currently situated within its borders.In contrast,
    a people-oriented, empowering smartness approach places the empowering function
    in the foreground by assuming that smart spaces make people smarter. This approach
    empowers users to make decisions and take actions as mature and responsible people.Although
    in some cases it might be more efficient if the system doesnýt ask for a userýs
    feedback and confirmation at every step in an action chain, the overall design
    rationale should aim to keep the user in the loop and in control whenever possible.
