Spanish population over 65 years old will soon be an important fraction. These data show the need for some helping technologies that make possible to deal with this scenario. This research aims to explore Ambient Intelligence and Semantic Web technologies to allow personal health monitoring and user interactions at home as transparent as possible. To achieve this goal a Multi-Agent System is proposed, focusing on knowledge representation. The ontology has been defined according to current…

Approaching Ambient Intelligent Home Care Systems
TLDR
This paper motivates the application of Ambient Intelligence technology for home care systems and identifies shortcomings of current solutions, outlines an integrated system approach to full-fledged AHCS, and introduces the amiCA system.
The SOUPA Ontology for Pervasive Computing
This paper describes SOUPA (Standard Ontology for Ubiquitous and Pervasive Applications) and the use of this ontology in building the Context Broker Architecture (CoBrA). CoBrA is a new agent…
A Multi-Agent System for Dynamic Service Composition in Ambient Intelligence Environments
TLDR
The approach combines multi-agent techniques with semantic web services to enable dynamic, context-aware service composition, thus providing users with relevant high level services depending on their current context and activity.
An Intelligent Broker Architecture for Pervasive Context-Aware Systems
TLDR
The major research contributions of this work include a broker-centric architecture for supporting context-aware systems, a standard pervasive computing ontology, a reasoning approach that integrates assumption-based reasoning and argumentation for resolving inconsistent contextual knowledge, and a privacy protection mechanism that exploits information granularity adjustment.
Ontologies for Agents: Theory and Experiences
TLDR
This paper presents an Ontology for Agent-Based Monitoring of Fulfillment Processes and some Experiences with the Use of Ontologies in Deliberative Agents.

TLDR
It is discussed how the availability of processing power and advanced sensing technology can enable a shift in HCI from explicit interaction, such as direct manipulation GUIs, towards a more implicit interaction based on situational context.
A Wearable Context Aware System for Ubiquitous Healthcare
TLDR
A context aware framework to send information from wearable sensors to healthcare service entities as a middleware to solve the interoperability problem between sensor makers and healthcare service providers is developed.
Users' Preferences for Ubiquitous Computing Applications at Home
TLDR
A home network and ambient intelligence prototype for wellness management and home automation applications and qualitative information about what kind of user interfaces would be desired for using these applications are described.
Semantic Web in the context broker architecture
TLDR
A new architecture that exploits semantic Web technologies for supporting pervasive context-aware systems and a broker agent that maintains a shared model of context for all computing entities in the space and enforces the privacy policies defined by the users when sharing their contextual information is described.
The Independent LifeStyle Assistant
TLDR
The Independent LifeStyle Assistant TM is an agent- based monitoring and support system to help elderly people to live longer in their homes by reducing caregiver costs and using machine learning.
