Abstract
This paper is about the architectures of an extensible and scalable home automation system which is based on instant messaging. The extensibility is the most important feature of the system because there are very diverse appliances at home and they can be added or replaced with other products frequently. For the extensibility, we propose façade architecture for communication, distributed agent architecture for the system, layered architecture for agents, and bridge architecture for wrapping existing facilities. Using these architectures, we reduce the system complexity and get the extensibility to add new products with least cost. Furthermore, we also introduce our prototype system and show that it is extensible.
