Salamanca (Spain), 28-30 April 2010Research in context-aware systems has been moving towards reusable and adaptable architectures for managing more advanced human-computer interfaces. Ambient. Intelligence (AmI) investigates computer-based services, which are ubiquitous and based on a variety of objects and devices. Their intelligent and intuitive interfaces act as mediators through which people can interact with the ambient environment. In this paper we present an agent-based architecture which supports the execution of agents in AmI environments. Two case studies are also presented, an airport information system and a railway information system, which uses spoken conversational agents to respond to the user's requests using the contextual information that includes the location information of the user.8application/pdfeng© Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010Multi-Agent SystemServices Oriented ArchitecturesMobile Context-Aware SystemsMulti-Agent Systemconference paperInformática10.1007/978-3-642-12433-4_58open access493500Trends in Practical Applications of Agents and Multiagent Systems: 8th International Conference on Practical Applications of Agents and Multiagent Systems8CC/0000010038
