The successful implementations of the concepts of Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) in smart home in the recent years and the advantages it provide in the smart home development have proved its importance. However, efforts are still needed for service-oriented design of smart home, especially at the architectural level. Although a number of layered architectures are proposed for smart home in th...

We propose a set of privacy preserving requirements based on our analysis of the AMX TPControl app for the Honda Smart Home. The Honda Smart Home contains controls and monitors designed to optimize energy use. Our study seeks to define privacy for the smart home app user, identify privacy requirements, while highlighting privacy vulnerabilities and ways to mitigate them. We focus on leaks that ...

The increasing demand for electricity has necessitated the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the development of the smart grid. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are contributing technologies. In this paper, a review on AMI and WSN in the smart grid is carried out. Also, the introduction of WSNs with AMI in the in-home e...

The growing market for smart home IoT devices promises new conveniences for consumers while presenting new challenges for preserving privacy within the home. Many smart home devices have always-on sensors that capture users’ offline activities in their living spaces and transmit information about these activities on the Internet. In this paper, we demonstrate that an ISP or other network observ...

In recent years, the smart home field has gained wide attention for its broad application prospects. However, families using smart home systems must usually adopt various heterogeneous smart devices, including sensors and devices, which makes it more difficult to manage and control their home system. How to design a unified control platform to deal with the collaborative control problem of hete...

With the brilliant advance of ubiquitous technologies, it is possible to provide more smart and pervasive healthcare services in a smart home environment. Despite of these remarkable advances of technologies, there are few smart home-based personalized healthcare services which fully consider not only user’s current situation but also user’s social relationship. In this paper, we try to model c...

We present our Smart Home Framework (SHF) which simplifies the modelling, prototyping and simulation of smart infrastructure (i.e., smart home and smart communities). It provides the buildings blocks (e.g., home appliances) that can be extended and assembled together to build a smart infrastructure model to which appropriate AI techniques can be applied. This approach enables rapid modelling wh...

Smart Home is one of emerging application domains of The Internet of Things. It minimizes user’s intervention in monitoring home settings and controlling home appliances. Mobile terminal has become an important part of Smart Home now. This paper presents an effective approach to solve the potential problems when using mobile terminal in Smart Home. In the smart home system, a kind of simple, ea...
