    abstract     = "Smart house installations are becoming more and more popular all over the world. They help to improve the quality of a daily life, reduce costs and increase security. 

The main goal of this project is to develop a {JAVA} tool for designing and simulating simple {2D} model of a smart house. The tool provides the ability to design the physical boundaries of a house, position a set of sensors inside it, and observe the operation of a house through a set of scenarios, where human behaviour will trigger the sensors. Both sensors infrastructure and building of scenarios are designed in a way that enables their easy extension in the future. Program is logging its operation, giving ability to experiment with scenarios and check their validity.

As conclusions extension possibilities are outlined, with the most important of them being development of logic unit (programmable or adaptive), governing the house operation, making the software a real smart house simulator."
