Abstract

This paper presents a conceptual framework and multi-agent model for context-aware decision support in dynamic smart environments based on heterogeneous knowledge sources. The framework relies on distributed ontologies and allows us to model context-aware agents which reason using rules that are derived from ontologies using the notion of multi-context systems. The use of the proposed framework is illustrated using a simple system developed from ontologies considering three different smart environment domains.

Keywords: Context-aware agents Multi-context system Defeasible reasoning Ontology
