HYDRA: A Development Platform for Integrating Wireless Devices and Sensors into Ambient Intelligence Systems

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

The HYDRA project develops middleware for networked embedded systems that allow developers to create ambient intelligence (AmI) applications based on wireless devices and sensors. Through its unique combination of Service-oriented Architecture (SoA) and a semantic-based Model-Driven Architecture, HYDRA will enable the development of generic services based on open standards.
