User adaptive systems in the context of pervasive computing can only unveil their power if based on a generic middleware managing private data and context information in combination with flexible device access and control. However, managing those data poses severe privacy problems both legally and from a trust perspective. Therefore we propose a home automation middleware for secure management of user and context data that gives access to services just for the authorized users and devices. The middleware has been successfuly tested at the Ambient Computing (AC-LAB) at the University of Paderborn.

“…Using profile modeling (Salem and Rauterberg 2004) each agent is designed to model the biological or basic needs of an inhabitant of the environment. Each inhabitant's environmental needs motivate it to plan and schedule events in the environment by searching for a set of environmental settings that allow the inhabitant to preserve its well-being and physical structure.…”

This work introduces an alternative approach to designing ambient intelligent environments by using a multi-agent system consisting of agents that represent inhabitants (humans, animals, plants, and objects) of the environment and physical devices (sensors and actuators) that control and monitor the environment. Inhabitants are able to compromise their own needs for the betterment of the environment as a whole. This synergy creates a balance where each inhabitant potentially receives sub-optimal environmental conditions but the environment as a whole achieves a optimal level. This work addresses several issues involving multiple parameter optimization and constraint satisfaction while maintaining the well being and physical structure of the inhabitants of an environment as well as the comfort of multiple human inhabitants sharing the same environment and its resources.

“…We wish to do this by addressing the player needs, requirements and desires. Salem and Rauterberg [1] propose a Needs Requirements and Desires (NRD) model where the self is at the centre, and all needs requirements and desires radiate from it. It is an egocentric, egoistic and hedonistic model.…”
