Une ontologie pour les syst{\`e}mes multi-agents ambiants dans les villes intelligentes

TL;DR

This paper proposes an OWL ontology to semantically structure connected device infrastructures in smart cities, facilitating multi-agent system cooperation and personalized services, demonstrated through smart mobility for reduced mobility users.

Contribution

It introduces a novel OWL ontology for smart city multi-agent systems, enabling better semantic understanding and management of connected devices and services.

Findings

Ontology effectively models smart city object infrastructure.

Supports personalized services for users with reduced mobility.

Can be adapted to various smart city domains.

Abstract

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.
