Intelligent Buildings: Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents

Abstract

FIPA is an IEEE Computer Society standards organization that promotes agent-based technology and the interoperability of its standards with other technologies. In the design phase of Intelligent Buildings, it is essential to manage many services and facilities, to do this, multi-agent systems are a good tool to manage them. In this paper, we will gereneral description of the features and elements of multiagent systems described by Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA). Secondly, we will focus on the architectures of these multiagent systems. And finally, we will propose a multi-agent system design to see the application in the design of a detached house where the lighting, air conditioning and security systems will be integrated.

Multi-Agent Systems for Resource Allocation and Scheduling in a Smart Grid

“…This strategy is ineffective and unsustainable [ 48 ]. Recent debates have focused on successfully incorporating occupants into their comfort determination [ 49 , 79 ]. Providing occupants with enough adaptive skills for personal control may make them more tolerant and prefer more extended settings, hence improving energy consumption [ 83 ].…”

“…The Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA) stresses that all data sharing between IAs occurs through the agent’s communication language [ 78 ]. Several agent-creation tools that adhere to FIPA criteria have been suggested and developed (see Table 3 ) [ 79 ]. In keeping with this, IAs exhibit flexibility and independence t comprising three key traits: Interaction: Based on these modifications and the task of making them, IAs will reply appropriately and adopt a precise approach.…”

A Multi-agent Approach for Online Twitter Bot Detection

“…The MAS architecture is based on the reactive agent model that is horizontally layered as presented in [32]. The architecture layers connect directly the sensors (input) and the actuators (output).…”
