SmartScript - a domain-specific language for appliance control in Smart Grids
2012
This paper describes an auto-configuring agent based software architecture connecting appliances, smart meters, solar panels, and a KNX building automation system, resulting in a complete demand-side smart grid. The agents are responsible for providing access to all datapoints in the system as well as sending commands to the active components. To control the system, a domain-specific language (DSL) called SmartScript was developed, whose benefits are twofold. The first one is to provide users, experts in electrical engineering and/or building automation but not in software systems, with a high level tool which they can use to control a demand-side smart grid. The second benefit is to provide a layer to implement and test quickly and effectively energy-aware algorithms without having to deal with all the underlying connections. Finally, some demo applications created using SmartScript (i.e., smartphone interface, voice-controlled building automation system) are presented in this work, in order to give an example of how SmartScript can be used.
