Abstract :
We present an ontology-based reasoning approach for saving energy in a smart home setting where a mobile phone can serve as a generic sensor which can collect the inhabitant´s contextual data. The paper details an ontology that describes the smart home domain and a prototype to test the system. Finally, we conclude with lessons learned from our work in developing an energy-aware smart home prototype and suggestions for future work.
