In this paper, we synthesize existing work in this area in order to dene and character- ize smart products. We then reect on a set of challenges that semantic technologies are likely

The Amigo system architecture poses limited technology-specific restrictions, supporting interoperability among heterogeneous services.

The optimisation machinery is the core of the so-called Wireless Adaptation Framework (WAF), which is proposed as a remedy to the performance degradation problem Internet protocols (and in particular IPv6-based) face when these operate over a multihop environment realized with heterogeneous wireless technologies. This

Towards a Better Understanding of Semantic Ontology-Based Home Service Modelling

However, service modelling using semantic knowledge sources and the available service semantic description languages can be a time and effort consuming
Interactive Home Supervision Application Think Visually

The advances in distributed sensing and wireless communication enable pervasive home applications... more The advances in distributed sensing and wireless communication enable pervasive home applications which are quit information-rich. Hereby the integrated access and management of heterogeneous information becomes an increasingly important research topic. Moreover recent popularity and advances in visual aids (Google maps, 3D computer graphics, PS games, etc.) call for the more attractively intuitive user interfaces to manage home data. This
Ontology driven data mining and information visualization for the networked home

As more data is gathered, data mining is becoming an increasingly important tool to transform this data into information. Visualization is central to data mining. Information visualization is the process of turning abstract data into a visual shape easily understood by the user, making it possible for him/her to

With ontologies it is possible to define and store context information, as well as to model different kinds of physical environments. Ontologies are central to networked home environments as they carry the meaning. However, ontologies and the OWL language is complex. Several ontology visualization approaches have been developed to

In this paper, we synthesize existing work in this area in order to define and characterize smart products. We then reflect on a set of challenges that semantic technologies are likely to face in this domain. Finally, in order to initiate discussion in the workshop, we sketch an initial comparison of smart products and semantic sensor ...
