Abstract
A smart home is a context-aware system that adapts itself autonomously in response to context to satisfy user needs and to improve safety, security, resource use, etc. On the one hand, software autonomy serves the basic purpose of pervasive computing by reducing interaction with the users, easing th

A smart home is a context-aware system that adapts itself autonomously in response to context to satisfy user needs and to improve security, resource use, etc
We present a novel approach to supporting user control in smart home environments through which users can themselves control the application behavior directly without being too much technical
Second component of User Control Manager (UCM) called Adaptation Logic Manipulator is responsible for providing such type of user control in context aware applications
Summary
A smart home is a context-aware system that adapts itself autonomously in response to context (location, activity, user presence, temperature, etc) to satisfy user needs and to improve security, resource use, etc. We argue that there may come times when control of application behaviour may involve more than just setting the parameters, i.e., modifying adaptation logic or contextual information of the application or user may want to add new context-aware behaviours that were not identified at the design time. This kind of user control is not possible with enactor model. We tested and evaluated our approach by implementing on smart home hypothetical example scenarios
