Abstract

This paper deals with smart home technologies which provide a flexible and comfortable home environment improving the quality of life for residents. The model of the Home Automation System proposed here integrates devices with one another under the control of an agent system. The research primarily focuses on the collaboration among agents which are responsible for the following problems: sensing the data, diagnosing states, running predefined rules and evaluating the system actions by gathering feedback from participants.
