“…The city-wide context-data management system serves as a centralized information repository for the project. In the past, we have worked on developing platforms to manage the context (Dey 2001) in intelligent environments, (Almeida and López-deIpiña 2012a;Vazquez et al 2009;Almeida et al 2009) but limiting ourselves to a single home or building. In the case of City4Age, the created context-manager is able to simultaneously manage and integrate the information produced by several cities, while being flexible enough to allow each city to decide the level of abstraction of the data that they 1 3…”

As citizens' age increases, smart cities must adapt to help them to age properly. The objective of the City4Age project is to create the future ambient assisted cities that will help the citizens to deal with mild cognitive impairments (MCI) and frailty. In this paper we present two of the tools developed during the project. The first one is a city-wide context-manager, which allows to store the citizens information using a semantic representation and share it following the linked open data paradigm. The second one are the individual care monitoring dashboards, which use the stored information to help the caregivers to analyze and interpret the citizens' behaviour, allowing to detect risks related to MCI and frailty.

“…[11] explains why OSGi is emerging as industry standard for control and coordinate the heterogeneous devices (sensors and actuators) dynamically deployed in any kind of environment. A few attempts have considered using OSGi, like FLEXEO [12], The Gator Tech Smart House [10], and SOCAM, all these approach following the general layered model. In our approach we combine OSGi framework with multi-agent system to build ubiquitous computing middleware.…”

The ubiquitous computing frameworks aim to build new applications to provide assistive services for people in autonomously way. Therefore, ubiquitous computing frameworks must integrate both heterogeneous and dynamic devices and interoperate with other heterogeneous applications. These frameworks must adapt their behaviors to provide services that match current user activity. This paper presents a contextaware ubiquitous approach based on lightweight coupling between multi-agent system and OSGi framework. A prototype of this framework is developed and simulated using USARSim robot simulator.

“…Examples of middleware that exploit the agent-based paradigm for realizing sensor network architectures include Flexeo, an intelligent wireless sensor network [35], and Cognitive Office, a middleware for intelligent environments [10]. Both of them offer a decentralized approach to intelligence [11].…”

Actualizing Internet of Things undoubtedly constitutes a major challenge of modern computing and is a promising next step in realizing the unification of all seamlessly interacting entities, either human users or participating machines, under a shared, coherent architecture. While it has now become common belief that the related solutions should be based on compatible network infrastructure employing widely accepted communication schemes, the specifics of the intermediate system that would act as global interface for all involved "things" are yet to be determined. A rising trend to define such machine-based entities is through cyberphysical systems, in terms of collaborating elements with physical input and output. Certainly, sensor networks constitute the most representative realization of such systems. Taking these issues and opportunities under consideration, this work proposes a bioinspired distributed architecture for an Internet of Things that exhibits self-organization properties to enable efficient interaction between entities modeled as cyber-physical systems, mainly focusing on sensor networks. Furthermore, a middleware has been implemented according to the proposed architecture, which serves the role of the backbone of this network as a multiagent and autonomous distributed system. The evaluation results demonstrate the self-optimization properties of the introduced scheme and indicate global network convergence.
