Title
Agent-Based Proactive Support in Smart Environments.
Abstract
We describe an agent based approach to control a heterogeneous and dynamic device ensemble. The resulting controller provides pro-active assistance to the users of the environment. For this, roles defining the functionality are attached to dynamically constructed agents. Those roles are assigned based on the current situation, that is the accessible state of all devices and the currently assigned roles. The feasibility of the approach is proven by applying it to a non-trivial use case of a smart meeting room. Finally we present the results of a user evaluation.
