Une ontologie pour les syst{è}mes multi-agents ambiants dans les villes intelligentes
This work addresses the need for semantic structuring in smart city infrastructures to enable personalized services, though it appears incremental as it adapts existing ontology methods to a specific domain.
The authors tackled the problem of managing connected devices in smart cities by proposing an OWL ontology to semantically structure object infrastructures, linking them to multi-agent system organization and user services, and applied it to smart mobility for people with reduced mobility.
Towns and cities are currently equipping themselves with a host of connected devices, with a view to transforming themselves into ''smart cities''. To manage this mass of connected objects, autonomous software entities, known as agents, can be attached to them to cooperate and use these devices to offer personalized services. However, this object infrastructure needs to be semantically structured in order to be exploited. This is why the proposal of this article is an ontology, formatted in OWL, describing the object infrastructures, their links with the organization of the multi-agent system and the services to be delivered according to the users of the system. The ontology is applied to smart mobility for people with reduced mobility, and could be adapted to other smart city axes.
