The Internet of Things (IoT) is a large-scale complex networked cyber physical system in which the Smart Objects (SOs) will be the fundamental building blocks. Although, many research efforts in the IoT realm have been to date devoted to device, networking and application service perspectives, software engineering approaches for the development of IoT systems are still in their infancy. This paper...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) introduce significant flexibility in the management of smart buildings. The elimination of wires allows to deploy battery-powered sensor and actuator nodes everywhere in both new, old and historical buildings. Thus, WSNs can allow to monitor the building structural health, to manage electric loads for energy saving, to control the comfort environmental conditions, to...
Future buildings will be smart to support personalized people comfort and building energy efficiency as well as safety, emergency, and context-aware information exchange scenarios. In this work we propose a decentralized and embedded architecture based on agents and wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs) for enabling efficient and effective management of buildings. The main purpose of the agent-based...
