Internet of Things (IoT) is an emergent technology paradigm that has been adopted in many areas such as smart cities, smart health organizations, and smart homes. IoT has facilitated the use of computing services for communities. IoT has provided lots of benefits in different domains. The use of IoT technology can be exorbitant, therefore there is a need to find economical solution to facilitate the...
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can consume a large percentage of the energy used in a typical building. Intelligent building automation systems (BAS) are widely deployed to enable more efficient HVAC utilization, thus reducing the energy consumed. Enhanced data requires distributed sensing. We propose an instrumentation system for a low-cost, over-the-top efficiency monitor...
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...
Largely motivated by the ubiquitous computing vision, computers have been steadily becoming integrated in people's life, expanding the ability of software applications to interact with the environment and the users. This has led to the creation of smart environments that support people in their daily life by exploiting information acquired using sensor networks. These systems are usually populated...
Understanding information and gaining insights about information usually means interacting with the displayed information. Utilizing the new capabilities of smart meeting rooms, visual outputs of different information representation applications are presented according to the user's needs. In this paper we present smart interaction management. This interaction approach enables the users to interact...
