在过去的10年中，环境智能（AmI）已经成为普适计算中的一个多学科领域，吸引了大量的研究，资金和公众的关注，并导致许多研究小组和会议专门关注环境智能主题。从其概念开始，AmI一直是一个由ICT技术如何塑造我们未来的特定愿景强烈驱动的领域。这就给了AmI的愿景，基本上是由ISTAG提出的，在塑造该领域和制定其研究议程方面发挥了过于核心的作用。我们认为，这一鼓舞人心的愿景不应再成为AMI研究的主要驱动力，我们现在应该重新解释其作用的背景下，10年的研究。在本文中，我们反映了它意味着什么的AMI移动背后的基本愿景，我们确定了一些新兴的趋势，围绕它的一些核心概念，更具体地说，智能的概念，系统视图和需求过程。其主要动机是寻找替代研究方向，可能更有效地提供今天的AmI愿景的本质，即使他们意味着放弃一些目前流行的方法和假设。总的来说，这些趋势提供了一个更全面的AmI的看法，并可能代表重要的贡献，使这一领域更接近实现，交付和真实的社会影响。
Ambient Intelligence (AmI) has emerged in the past 10 years as a multidisciplinary field within ubiquitous computing, attracting considerable research, funding and public attention and leading to many research groups, and conferences specifically focused on Ambient Intelligence topics. From its conception, AmI has always been a field strongly driven by a particular vision of how ICT technologies would shape our future. This has given the AmI vision, essentially as proposed by ISTAG, an excessively central role in shaping the field and setting its research agenda. We argue that this inspiring vision should no longer be the main driver for AmI research and that we should now re-interpret its role in the background of 10 years of research. In this paper, we reflect on what it means for AmI to move behind its foundational vision and we identify a number of emerging trends around some of its core concepts, more specifically the notion of intelligence, the system view and the requirements process. The main motivation is to search for alternative research directions that may be more effective in delivering today the essence of the AmI vision, even if they mean abandoning some of the currently prevailing approaches and assumptions. Overall, these trends provide a more holistic view of AmI and may represent important contributions for bringing this field closer to realisation, delivery and real social impact.
