It can be seen that the vision of the future networking is more focused on the things, media and services, rather than people. With the increasing importance of the Internet of Things, as well as the diversity of the objects, it is crucial to achieve the highest possible level of interoperability. This means that information exchanged needs to have the same format; in addition, data needs to be processed...
Some of the home automation solutions support user manageable extensions, although with numerous constraints: e.g. requirement for specific controller devices, operating system dependency, or platform specific programming knowledge for development. This approach results in closed policy of home automation systems and excludes independent developers from anticipating in their expansion. This paper...
Dissimilarity between Bluetooth Low Energy based devices limits a number of devices that can be added to a home automation system to a particular brand. This paper presents a new method which enables "brand-free plug-n-play" deployment of smart devices. The method is based on novel approach to home manager concepts of services and properties, and design of adaption mechanism layer. The method...
Home automation systems are confronted with a demand to forward information to, or to receive information from a remote system. To accomplish this, while routing through the network, information has several protocol conversions. This paper proposes unifying of intermediaries (hubs, gateways, etc.) in home automation systems, to avoid these conversions. Starting from a network endpoint and his communication...
The purpose of this paper is to present a solution for adaptable and efficient user profiling system for set-top-box (STB) devices. The system is set in the cloud environment and based on TR-069 remote management protocol and TR-135 data model for STB devices. The proposed solution allows the development of better and more precise applications for recommending TV and Internet based multimedia content...
In this paper we present a novel software-based home control platform as an add-on to a set-top box (STB) for digital television. By means of using merely a remote controller, traditional STB users become able to control lights, appliances and media playback in their homes. Intelligence and awareness is achieved with a support for execution of recipes - pre-prepared scripts that define timely actions...
