1. Time: students spend a lot of time in the University, then they have very little time to perfrom home activities
2. Health: a lot of students lead a sedentary life, moreover due to the booredom of cooking thay eat a lot of junk food
3. Money: not only students but also all people want the best service at the best price
4. Comodity: all the services just described offered for maximum comfort

After this kind of anlisys we start to develop the assistant.
