Active Rule System Based on User's Emotional Margin for Power Saving Control

Active Rule Manager for the Mobile Agent Middleware System

“…The basic structure of an event is as 'message_t' before sending. Migration method may be in consecutive order or without order when necessary, and uses user-defined order and information from MetaTable, in accordance with received node ID, in sink node [7].…”

“…Active rules (gathering, transmitting, managing of sensor data and device control) loaded on the mobile agent are executed according to the value of sensing data at the sensor node. Furthermore, if an additional node for rule execution exists, migration and rule execution process continue in accordance with the user-defined order, and upon termination, the user-defined order is removed automatically [7,8].…”

“…Fig. 1 shows the active rule system in sensor data server that is linked with mobile agent middleware system [2,7]. Active rule system as an applied module is composed of subsystems of rule components (event, condition, and action) and processes sensing information coming from sensor nodes or sink nodes as an event and executes necessary actions by linkage with existing database and rule base [1,2].…”

“…Gathered data is used for event detection and situation classification, and if the data is unnecessary, it is removed or used by rule manager according to the rule base. Action executor performs actions, such as device control and data store in the database, after confirming the network and related situations [7].…”

“…In daily life, the user's emotion-based illumination technique plays an important role in power saving control. To obtain the optimal power saving effect and illumination standards, the smart power saving techniques are required in sensor network environment [5,7,8]. It is suitable for the active rule system to derive smart power saving by adjusting the illuminance using active rules in accordance with the user's emotion.…”
