“…Our goal is to integrate the proposed UML model based approach through the knowledge base approach with a new set of translators, bridging UML Models and ontologies like in [6]. Further activities aim at a wider support for our eHomeSpecificator shifting it to open source and combining all mentioned tools in one project called eHomeConfigurator [15]. Promising tests with our cooperation partner inHaus [7] show the applicability of our approach in a realistic environment.…”

One of the main reasons preventing a wide application of eHome systems in practice is the effort needed to combine all appliances, necessary controller and infrastructure components to benefit from derived value-added services. The properties, dependencies, locations, and installation conditions have to be properly specified for this composition and its deployment. Due to the great variance in services and eHome configurations there is a need for tool support for eHome systems. In this paper we address the software development issues of such tools. In our approach we base the software development on graph rewriting language techniques. Based on our experience, we consider this approach as a possibility to improve the productivity of the eHome system tool development. With the aid of Fujaba, we created a model capable of specifying functions, devices, environments, and value-added services. Furthermore, we used Fujaba to create the activities as graph rewriting rules for model modifications. To apply the model and to carry out the actual specification for a particular eHome and particular appliances we generated the eHomeSpecificator tool from the model and its activities. This tool can serve as a base for a wider range of tools supporting eHome systems.

“…A number of research projects, such as eHome [6] [7], AMIGO [1], ETRI Open Home Framework [4], have addressed challenges in home task automation. The technical problems addressed by these projects include: device and software interoperability, deployment management, and installation-time configuration.…”

Smart environments are pervasive systems that comprise integrable net-aware devices. This way, intelligent services can offer complex functionalities across multiple devices. Smart s& snsr , ,, ,, .Workplace prfld home environments, also called ellomes, constitute already an Woklc important research area. However, to build a real ellome is associated with high effort and financial costs. In this paper, we describe our software tool eHomeSimulator that allows us to simulate different smart environments. Thus, we can abstract from creating buildings and developing or purchasing devices.eHonnt Instead, we can use the elomeSimulator to research on software engineering aspects of elomes, such as service development,ces specification, composition, deployment, and personalization. cotos rcive
