چکیده

Sustainability is an important topic of discussion in our world. However, measuring sustainability and assessing behaviors is not always easy. Indeed, and in order to fulfill this goal, in this work it will be proposed a multi-agent based architecture to measure and assess sustainable indicators taken from a given environment. These evaluations will be based on past and present behaviors of the users and the particularities of the setting, leading to the evaluation of workable indicators such as gas emissions, energetic consumption and the users fitting with respect to the milieu. Special attention is given to user interaction and user attributes to calculate sustainable indicators for each type of structure, i.e., the aim of this scheme is to promote sustainability awareness and sustainable actions through the use of sustainable markers calculated in terms of the information gathered from the environment.

Ubiquitous Sensorization for Multimodal Assessment of Driving Patterns

Sustainability issues and sustainable behaviours are becoming concerns of increasing signi cance in our society. In the case of transportation systems, it would be important to know the impact of a given driving behaviour over sustainability factors. This paper describes a system that integrates ubiquitous mobile sensors available on devices such as smartphones, intelligent wristbands and smart...

SVAS3: Strain Vector Aided Sensorization of Soft Structures

Soft material structures exhibit high deformability and conformability which can be useful for many engineering applications such as robots adapting to unstructured and dynamic environments. However, the fact that they have almost infinite degrees of freedom challenges conventional sensory systems and sensorization approaches due to the difficulties in adapting to soft structure deformations. I...

Simulating socially intelligent agents in semantic virtual environments

The simulation of synthetic humans inhabiting virtual environments is a current research topic with a great number of behavioral problems to be tackled. Semantical Virtual Environments (SVEs) have recently been proposed not only to ease world modelling but also to enhance agent-object and agent-agent interaction. Thus, we propose the use of ontologies to define the world’s knowledge base and to...

Gamification, Social Networks and Sustainable Environments

— Intelligent environments and ambient intelligence enabled systems provide means to gather rich information from both environments and its users. With the help of such systems, it is possible to foster communities of ambient intelligence systems with community driven knowledge, which is created by individual actions and setups in each of the environments. Such arrangements provides the potenti...

Ambient Sensorization for the Furtherance of Sustainability

Energy efficiency is regarded as an important objective in a world of limited resources. The sustainable use of energy is necessary for the continuity of life styles that do not jeopardize the future. Nevertheless, due to poor information about the impact of human actions on the environment, it is hard to promote and warn for sustainability. This work focuses on the use of ambient intelligence ...
