Abstract
The ambient intelligence scenario depicts electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. This paper presents an ambient intelligence system whose goal is to enhance the experience of pedestrians moving inside the related physical environment. In particular, in our approach the environment itselfis endowed with a set ofsensors that perceive the presence ofhumans (or other physical entities such as dogs, bicycles, cars) and interact with a set ofactuators that choose their actions in an attempt improve the overall experience ofthese users. The specific scenario of application is the realization an adaptive illumination. The model guiding the interaction and action ofsensors and actuators is a dissipative multilay-ered cellular automata, supporting a self-organization of the system as a response to the presence and movements of people inside it. The paper will introduce the model, as well as the results ofsimulations ofits application in a concrete case study. A briefdiscussion ofthe potential use ofthis model and approach beyond this scenario will conclude the paper. © 2008 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
