An agent for simulating cognitive impairment in elders: work in progress

Assistive technologies for cognition are designed to help elders with various forms of cognitive impairment maintain an independent style of living for as long as possible. This work discusses the use of an agent simulation to model the behaviors of an elder with dementia in an effort to facilitate preliminary operational and performance testing of emerging assistive technologies.
