Location-aware JADE Agents in Indoor Scenarios
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a novel JADE add-on that enables the implementation of location-aware agents by interfacing an underlying ranging technology which provides accurate distance measures both indoor and outdoor. First, the paper motivates the work and it presents the features and the architecture of the add-on. Then, the paper provides a detailed description of the implemented localization algorithms and it validates them in an indoor scenario. The experimental results show that accurate indoor localization can be achieved and that the presented addon can be used to support location-aware agents with sufficient accuracy for targeted educational and ludic applications.

Enhancing the Map Usage for Indoor Location-Aware Systems
Location-aware systems are receiving more and more interest in both academia and industry due to their promising prospective in a broad category of so-called Location-Based-Services (LBS). The map interface plays a crucial role in the location-aware systems, especially for indoor scenarios. This paper addresses the usage of map information in a Wireless LAN (WLAN)-based indoor navigation system...
متن کاملAn Optimization-Based Algorithm for Indoor Localization of JADE Agents
This paper describes and evaluates an optimizationbased localization algorithm which has been recently implemented to enrich the possibilities of the localization add-on module for JADE. The described algorithm targets indoor scenarios and it enables localization of JADE agents running on smart devices in known environments, provided that a conventional WiFi network is present. The algorithm as...
متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
متن کاملGenerating an Indoor space routing graph using semantic-geometric method
The development of indoor Location-Based Services faces various challenges that one of which is the method of generating indoor routing graph. Due to the weaknesses of purely geometric methods for generating indoor routing graphs, a semantic-geometric method is proposed to cover the existing gaps in combining the semantic and geometric methods in this study. The proposed method uses the CityGML...
