Abstract

Ambient Intelligence systems integrate domotic devices and advanced control and intelligent algorithms, thus leading to integrate systems with a high degree of complexity in their behavior. Ensuring the correctness of the design of such system is therefore essential, and this paper proposed a methodology, based on formal modeling and verification techniques, to verify logic and temporal properties of an intelligent ambient. The approach is integrated with the Dog domotic gateway, and automatic translation tools ensure the correctness of the verified model while adding no additional task for system designers.
