Abstract

Smart environments such as smart offices are multi-user, heterogeneous and dynamic. Dynamism arises because each user is likely to have different application requirements and both users and devices may join and leave the system at runtime. Heterogeneity arises from the combined use of embedded sensor nodes, smartphones and powerful servers. The Loosely-coupled Component Infrastructure (LooCI) is a reconfigurable component and binding model that provides a consistent programming and reconfiguration approach for heterogeneous platforms. This paper outlines a demonstration that illustrates how one can build complex pervasive applications in a consistent and straight forward manner across heterogeneous platforms using LooCI.
