Abstract
A purpose built environmental testbed for Intelligent Interactive Environments research, based upon student accommodation (iDorm) is described. It is argued to be a practical example of Grid technology. The testbed combines several different networks and provides a common protocol to act as a gateway between the different sensors and effectors in the iDorm. A variety of interfaces to allow users to control and monitor the different services are described and critiqued. Future plans for extensions to the iDorm are described along with future plans for research experiments using intelligent agents as monitoring tools and interfaces themselves.
