Abstract :
The paper presents the concept of a rule engine as a way of managing the emerging complexity of the interaction between the various home devices. The rule engine is intended to enable end users at home to command and control their environment based on a set of rules. By means of events, conditions and actions, the powerful expressions allow defining rules for any kind of home networking scenario.
