It introduces Use Cases as a tool for exploring the responsibilities of Smart Homes and it proposes a modification of the conventional Use Case structure to suit the particular requirements of Smart Homes. It presents a taxonomy of Smart-Home-related Use Cases with seven categories. It draws on those Use Cases as raw material for developing questions and conclusions about the design of Smart Homes for single elderly inhabitants, and it introduces the SHMUC repository, a web-based repository of Use Cases related to Smart Homes that anyone can exploit and to which anyone may contribute.enTaxonomySmart homeSHMUCSmart environmentsFields of Research::290000 Engineering and Technology::290800 Civil Engineering::290804 Construction engineeringJournal articleMassey_DarkMassey_Dark
