| Abstract | Service personalization is an important goal for any smart environment. Comfort systems may be adjusted in an automatic way when a given user is present, and multimedia devices may offer a music or movie catalog with favorite contents or may even pick one of them for the user. To achieve this goal, we propose a Service Oriented Architecture implementation based on multiagent systems. We specially take advantage of the mobility features of software agents. In particular, we have developed a hierarchical, agent-based solution intended to be applicable to different smart space scenarios, ranging from small environments, like smart homes or smart offices, to large smart spaces like cities. In this paper we describe the global architecture and focus on our approach to service personalization using mobile agents that follow the users as they move through different smart spaces. |
