Abstract :
In this paper we give an adaptation of the standard FIPA Contract net Protocol for a multi-agent based smart home simulation. Smart home appliances are controlled by software agents that can communicate their needs and un/satisfaction to the Home Energy Manager Agent. The problem we encountered with FIPA specification is that each interacting agent is either initiator or participant during his life cycle. We propose a solution that allows agents to change their basic behavior and to be dynamical to their whole environment change depending on their requirements. The proposed solution is suitable to manage flexible household appliances such as advancing, delaying, or suspending their operation. Hence it leads to building energy efficiency and enhancing agents´ coordination and collaboration for smart grid demand side management.
