Abstract

This paper presents a Hybrid Multi-Agent Architecture for the control and supervision of dependent environments. HoCa (Home health Care) integrates various modules to allow an agile exchange of information, minimizing the necessary message traffic and optimizing the efficiency. HoCa is based on an Ambient Intelligence model and integrates a management system of alerts and an automated identification, localization, and movement control system. The core of the architecture is formed by both deliberative agents and reactive agents that interact to offer efficient services. The architecture has been successfully tested in a real environment.
