| Abstract: |
This work presents an Ambient Intelligence system, that targets
energy consumption awareness and savings. The system was deployed at the
School of Science and Technology of the International Hellenic University. It
was implemented following a three-layer approach. The first layer hosts devices
(in our implementation smart plugs, sensor boards and smart clampers) suited
for the purpose. The second layer, namely the aWESoME Web Service
Middleware, resolves interoperability issues on the first layer, by universally
exposing all actuator functions and sensor data through Web Services. Finally,
a prototype application for monitoring and control, named iDEALISM, has
been developed to reside on the topmost layer. iDEALISM has actually been
tested and evaluated by students, for its usability and effectiveness in raising
awareness. |
