Abstract
Large-scale Smart Environments (LSEs) are open and dynamic systems where issues related to scalability and interoperability require to be carefully addressed. Moreover, as such systems typically extend on a wide area and include a huge number of interacting devices, aspects concerning services and objects discovery and reputation assessment require being managed. Despite the increasing interest in this topic, there is a lack of approaches for developing LSEs. This paper proposes an Agent based approach for the development of LSEs which leverages Edge Computing and Social Internet of Things paradigms in order to address the above mentioned issues. The effectiveness of such an approach is assessed through a case study involving a Smart School District environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
