A Distributed Ambient Intelligence Based Multi-Agent System for Alzheimer Health Care
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter presents ALZ-MAS1, an Ambient Intelligence based multi-agent system aimed at enhancing the assistance and health care for Alzheimer patients. The system makes use of several context-aware technologies that allow it to automatically obtain information from users and the environment in an evenly distributed way, focusing on the characteristics of ubiquity, awareness, intelligence, mobility, etc., all of which are concepts defined by Ambient Intelligence. ALZ-MAS makes use of a services oriented multi-agent architecture, called FUSION@, to distribute resources and enhance its performance. It is demonstrated that a SOA approach is adequate to build distributed and highly dynamic Ambient Intelligence based multi-agent systems.
