The significance that Ambient Intelligence (AmI) has acquired in recent years requires the development of innovative solutions. In this sense, the development of AmI-based systems requires the creation of increasingly complex and flexible applications. The use of context-aware technologies is an essential aspect in these developments in order to perceive stimuli from the context and react upon it autonomously. This paper presents SYLPH, a novel platform that defines a method for integrating dynamic and self-adaptable heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). This approach facilitates the inclusion of context-aware capabilities when developing intelligent ubiquitous systems, where functionalities can communicate in a distributed way. A WSN infrastructure has been deployed for testing and evaluating this platform. Preliminary results and conclusions are presented in this paper.

AbstractIn order to be able to specify and design ubiquitous applications, it is necessary to rely on a precise and formal representation of context. Aiming at reducing the gap between the formal specification and the design of a concrete ubiquitous application, we have proposed an approach to specify a context-aware system at three levels of abstraction. This specification uses the Algebra of Contextualized Ontologies, which is based on Category Theory and takes contextualization as a basic notion, proposing a small set of simple and powerful operations to compose and decompose contextualized ontologies. In this paper, we present a revised version of the algebra and algorithms to compute the algebraic operations. We exemplify our approach along with a concrete ubiquitous computing scenario. Moreover, by taking advantage of Category Theory foundations, we show that it is possible to derive the algorithms for each algebraic operation from simple modifications of a single basic algorithm.
