A multi-agent architecture for intelligent home network service by MASSIHN

Abstract

The major design challenge to realize intelligent home network services is organizing distributed as well as heterogeneous home devices effectively. To meet the design challenge, a mobile agent space based multi-agent architecture is considered in this paper. MASSIHN is a home network system that links consumer electronics and computing devices in the home. The proposed approach can execute MASSIHN applications from many commonly used devices such as PDA and laptops.
