Multimodal Appliance Cooperation based on Explicit Goals: Concepts & Potentials

Keywords: Smart environments, Smart appliances, Goal-based interaction, Unsupervised spontaneous cooperation

Smart Environments will increasingly compose from individual components (smart appliances) that have to assemble themselves into a coherently acting ensemble. This requires software technologies that enable appliances to cooperate spontaneously on behalf of the user′s needs. In this paper we will illustrate why a goal-based approach is rea-sonable and how explicit goals can be used to find system comprehensive strategies and how explicit declarative goals could be used as a benchmark to evaluate the system design.
