Collective domotic intelligence through dynamic injection of semantic rules

Recent advances in IoT and pervasive computing have led to the introduction of a plethora of devices, featuring enhanced intelligence in sensing, understanding context and reacting to situations. In the case of smart home environment, the result is the introduction of smart, connected domotic devices, featuring enhanced intelligence. In combination with enhanced capabilities for sensing, controlling and automatic, the power of these devices can be further exploited by the use of a semantic connection layer that can facilitate a goal-oriented collaboration between devices and a meaningful interaction with humans. This paper proposes an integrated platform, enabling dynamic injection of automation rules based on semantic web technologies, in a collective intelligence environment. The role of the human - end user in this environment is supported through a user friendly IDE enabling the easy discovery, access and operation, through the introduction of automation rules.
