Using FML and fuzzy technology in adaptive ambient intelligent environments

Ambient Intelligence (AmI, shortly) gathers best re-sults from three key technologies, Ubiquitous Computing, Ubiq-uitous Communication, and Intelligent User Friendly Inter-faces. The functional and spatial distribution of tasks is a natu-ral thrust to employ multi-agent paradigm to design and imple-ment AmI environments. Two critical issues, common in most of applications, are (1) how to detect in a general and efficient way context from sensors and (2) how to process contextual in-formation in order to improve the functionality of services. In this work we experiment a framework where hybrid techniques (distributed fuzzy control, mobile agents, fuzzy rules induction algorithms) are mixed to gain flexibility and uniformity.
