Abstract :
This paper describes a user interface for networks in the home. The main idea is to develop a user interface with high acceptance by the user and flexibility. This user interface is based on a network we call Home-Net but can obviously be employed with any other Home System like the European ESPRIT Home System, the American Consumer Electronics Bus (CEBus) and the Japanese Home Bus System (HBS)
