We have informed the AIS design through a case study we carried out to understand elders' deficiencies for adhering to their medication routine. As a result of the case study and the AIS design process; we identified the design issues that should be addressed when developing AIS that cope with the elders needs for living independently. Identifying these design issues is a step toward proposing design guidelines for the development of AIS for elderly. Through a heuristic evaluation, we identified several usability problems that enabled us to improve AIS characteristics, such as the intuitive mapping of the information representations and the visibility of the different AIS states.
