COALAA-GEN: A General Adaptive Approach for Ambient Assistive Applications

摘要

This paper presents the design and the implementation of general and adaptive framework for ambient assisted living applications. The challenge is to deal with a dynamic environment in order to provide an adequate service to an elderly or a sick person at home in a cooperative way. It is necessary to take into account constraints such as, the degree of urgency of the service and the intrusion degree of the system. The evolution of the degree of intrusion based on the degree of urgency and the availability of the different communication devices of the ambient environment are particularly targeted. Through an adaptive approach based on coalitions of agents, the multi-agents system ensures answers to various and/or unforeseen situations. The originality is to employ a declarative method for modeling the coalitions formation process by means of a rule-based system.
