Abstract :
The advances in distributed sensing and wireless communication enable pervasive home applications which are quit information-rich. Hereby the integrated access and management of heterogeneous information becomes an increasingly important research topic. Moreover recent popularity and advances in visual aids (Google maps, 3D computer graphics, PS games, etc.) call for the more attractively intuitive user interfaces to manage home data. This work describes the ontology based home management approach which facilitates integration, interactive visualization and necessary sharing of heterogeneous home data.
