Developers should be able to make design decisions about these technologies in order to fulfill the requirements of each specific system. As a consequence, choosing and using specific ones (protocols, middleware, networking technologies, etc.) is actually not only a technical but a design problem that has consequences in relation with the supported applications/systems (e.g. mobile applications, context-aware systems, ambient intelligence environments, etc). However, the use of communication technologies require a high level of expertise, specially when using middleware technologies, since they usually entail a complex design. This research work intends to contribute to simplifying and improving the design, use and understanding of existing or future communication technologies. This paper proposes a model-driven approach to simplify the development of complex communication schemes. From the abstract specification of a communication scheme as a Computation Independent Model (CIM), it is derived a Platform Independent Model (PIM), which comprises the elements present in ubiquitous systems. Middleware technologies and their particular settings conform to Platform Specific Models (PSM) that stem from applying transformation rules to that PIM. To automatize the transformation process, the approach has been implemented with EMF and ATL. Finally, as a case study, the model-driven development of a middleware for ubiquitous systems is presented.","PeriodicalId":353156,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132136045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As missions increased in duration, the issue of liveability gradually became an issue of habitability, opening the way for architects to contribute to the design of a functional interior. This paper presents an emerging field in the cross-section of design and technology titled sensponsive architecture. The term sensponsive is a combination of the words sense and responsive. While a responsive design approach is applied to help a structure react to environmental changes, a sensponsive approach is user-centered, employing the same technology to ensure the spatial and psychological comfort of the user. It is the product of a flexible, transformable, technology-mediated architecture with intelligent systems seamlessly incorporated into the created environment, in this case the interior of a spacecraft module, to exhibit a programmed behavior in direct relation to the human activity within. The activity is evaluated through three diagnostic layers, the spatial layer, the perceptual layer and the experiential layer. The sensponsive configuration is based upon two active systems, the Activity Evaluation System (AES) and the Response System (RS) which act in combination by directing subtle spatial (volume, surface) and ambient (audio, visual, olfactory, haptic) changes when necessary. It acts discreetly, firstly by understanding the conditions and the context in which they take place and then by responding to them accordingly with sense. A sensponsive spacecraft environment aims to provide beneficial living conditions for the astronauts and address spatial qualities along with activity-related issues that emerge from prolonged isolation and confinement.","PeriodicalId":353156,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121117850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For teaching we argue that the Internet-of-Things provides a highly motivating topic to capture students' imaginations, and a perfect platform for teaching computer science. In addition, we explain the potential for entire campuses or buildings to be constructed from Internet-of-Things technologies and the potential for this infrastructure to act as a teaching platform. This proposition is perfectly captured by the axiom \"The college building (or campus) is the lab\". This philosophy is part of a wider movement that started in the EU, called Living Labs. In achieving these aims, our work seeks to combine a number of concepts, first we utilise the Internet-of-Things, second we incorporate Living Labs ideas, third we harness the iCampus vision, forth we use the 'Smart Box' concept and finally we implement the Pervasive-interactive-Programming (PiP) paradigm. We contend this approach can be used in various mixes to produce highly motivating and effective educational environments. We illustrate this work by describing the application of these ideas to a real-world venture, the Harlow UTC (in the UK). The main focus of this paper concerns the use of PiP, together with the Internet-of-Things, to teach elementary programming skills. In in support of this we present results of an evaluation of PiP with 18 participants (students and staff) of varied age and gender. The main conclusions of these evaluations were that PiP enabled students and staff, with diverse backgrounds, to quickly master the programming skills involved. The paper concludes by describing our future plans for this work.","PeriodicalId":353156,"journal":{"name":"2013 9th International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122436852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
