Abstract :
Developing technologies and systems for automated control of home and workplace environments is a challenging problem. We present a complete agent architecture for learning to automate a smart environment and discuss integration of AT and middleware technologies necessary to achieve the goals of this project. Results are demonstrated using the MavPad and MavLab intelligent environments.
