“…Although providing reference examples of methodologies for the isolated modules is easy, as shown above, the main challenge identified in the full deployment of this methodology is to include interactions among methodologies of disparate research streams. As explained above, the combination of the technologies contemplated here is an unexplored field, although some works address some of them [ 31 , 47 ]. Most importantly, as in any evaluation based on simulations, the ultimate question is whether the conclusions are valid for the real world or just a result of an incorrect verification and validation of the software [ 52 ].…”

“…Moreover, the avatar's viewpoint can be adopted as in a first-person game. For augmented experiments, the aforementioned implementation has been used to make mobile devices, which can be used by humans playing the role of human-based sensors or AmI users, perceive simulated entities [ 31 ] (video available on-line: [ 32 ]).…”

“…Campillo-Sanchez et al [ 31 ] review six different simulators devoted to evaluating general AmI systems, including UbiWise [ 33 ], TATUS [ 34 ] and UbiReal [ 35 ]. Although they enable developers to design realistic environments, the user role has to be played by a real user interacting with the simulator.…”

One of the most promising fields for ambient intelligence is the implementation of intelligent emergency plans. Because the use of drills and living labs cannot reproduce social behaviors, such as panic attacks, that strongly affect these plans, the use of agent-based social simulation provides an approach to evaluate these plans more thoroughly. (1) The hypothesis presented in this paper is that there has been little interest in describing the key modules that these simulators must include, such as formally represented knowledge and a realistic simulated sensor model, and especially in providing researchers with tools to reuse, extend and interconnect modules from different works. This lack of interest hinders researchers from achieving a holistic framework for evaluating emergency plans and forces them to reconsider and to implement the same components from scratch over and over. In addition to supporting this hypothesis by considering over 150 simulators, this paper: (2) defines the main modules identified and proposes the use of semantic web technologies as a cornerstone for the aforementioned holistic framework; (3) provides a basic methodology to achieve the framework; (4) identifies the main challenges; and (5) presents an open and free software tool to hint at the potential of such a holistic view of emergency plan evaluation in indoor environments.

“…These agents are capable of behaving both in a reactive and deliberative manner, based on the knowledge acquired from the middleware and represented using ontologies and rules. Finally, it is worth mentioning the work by Campillo-Sanchez et al [15] where a smart space is simulated to test context-aware services for smartphones. The authors introduce the UbikMobile architecture that allows the design of simulated environments in a graphical manner.…”

Ambient intelligence (AmI) is intrinsically and thoroughly connected with artificial intelligence (AI). Some even say that it is, in essence, AI in the environment. AI, on the other hand, owes its success to the phenomenal development of the information and communication technologies (ICTs), based on principles such as Moore's law. In this paper we give an overview of the progress in AI and AmI interconnected with ICT through information-society laws, superintelligence, and several related disciplines, such as multi-agent systems and the Semantic Web, ambient assisted living and e-healthcare, AmI for assisting medical diagnosis, ambient intelligence for e-learning and ambient intelligence for smart cities. Besides a short history and a description of the current state, the frontiers and the future of AmI and AI are also considered in the paper.

“…Campillo-Sanchez, et al work [8,9] advances with Ubik Mobile and PHAT architectures to provide developers with tools to test context-aware services based on smartphones in a simulated AAL environment. Their main contribution is that a real smartphone, and not only an emulator, can be connected to the simulated world to conduct manual and automatic tests.…”

In order to evaluate AAL systems, virtual environments help to reduce costs and time, but these environments do not include hyper-realistic human movements. This is something crucial to evaluate activity recognition systems. The present work in progress describes how it is looking for a way to solve this problem and its development using a virtual environment. By means of a game engine and adjusting their parameters, simulations of real acceleration data sets have been generated. It is continuing looking for a valid model to follow.
