Abstract

The term "Smart Home" refers to a home that has both a set of sensors to observe the environment and a set of actuators to automatically control home devices to improve the occupants' experience. A Smart Home has the potential to provide a variety of services based on information gleaned by data recorded by a multiplicity of sensor types, but also requires a systematic means (a) of abstracting differences among sensor types and (b) of supporting services and their rapid development. In this paper, we describe our approach towards meeting those needs, including a component of sensor adapters and a language for modeling person activities that can guide the development of health-care services.
