Plans and Planning in Smart Homes

  • Chapter
Designing Smart Homes

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 4008))

Abstract

In this chapter, we review the use (and uses) of plans and planning in Smart Homes. Plans have several applications within Smart Homes, including: sharing task execution with the home’s inhabitants, providing task guidance to inhabitants, and to identifying emergencies. These plans are not necessarily generated automatically, nor are they always represented in a human-readable form. The chapter ends with a discussion of the research issues surrounding the integration of plans and planning into Smart Homes.
