Agents based approach for smart eco-home environments

This paper proposes an agent based approach to deal with the world wide concerned eco problems, i.e., saving energy consumption and reducing CO2 emission. This paper demonstrates a simulated home with the facilities of calculation the average energy consumption and CO2 emmision of possible devices or appliances. Various agents for the support of reducing energy consumption and CO2 emission at home are designed and deployed in a multi-agent framework. They are working in a collaboration way in the terms of sharing their knowledge resources and working together toward a same goal. It is challenge to make influence on people towards energy saving and CO2 reducing life habit and style. This issue is to be discussed in this paper as well.
