sharing platform in application module. Figure 3 illustrates an example of reasoning process when caregiver’s task is to help PwD eat a meal. Through knowledge sharing platform, caregiver can not only provide patient assessment information but also obtain care guide for different task. For example, caregiver can find (1) necessary objects to be prepared for a task, (2) spatial information of objects, (3) temporal events related with current and future task and so on (Fig. 4). Conclusions: In this study, we developed an knowledge-based care support system that can give various care guidelines to caregivers for individual PwD. In the future, we are going to reinforce the ontological model of caring PwD and test the validity of the proposed system in the dementia patient caring facilities in Korea.
