Smart environments enabled by the Internet of Things aim at improving our daily lives by automatically tuning ambient parameters and by achieving energy savings through self-managing cyber-physical systems. Commercial solutions, however, only permit setting simple target goals on those parameters and do not mediate between conflicting goals among different users and/or system administrators, nor across different IoT verticals. In this article, we propose a declarative approach (and its open-source Prolog prototype) to represent smart environments, user-set goals and customisable mediation policies to reconcile contrasting goals across multiple IoT systems.

Abstract
Smart environments enabled by the Internet of Things aim at improving our daily lives by automatically tuning ambient parameters and by achieving energy savings through self-managing cyber-physical systems. Commercial solutions, however, only permit setting simple target goals on those parameters and do not mediate between conflicting goals among different users and/or system administrators, nor across different IoT verticals. In this article, we propose a declarative approach (and its open-source Prolog prototype) to represent smart environments, user-set goals and customisable mediation policies to reconcile contrasting goals across multiple IoT systems.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
