IEEE Personal Communications - Special Issue on Smart Homes

  Smart Homes link computers to everyday tasks and environments that have
traditionally been viewed as outside the purview of automation.  Important
features of such environments are that they possess a degree of autonomy,
adapt themselves to changing conditions, and communicate with humans in a
natural way.  Instead of finding application in spreadsheets and word
processors, these systems take the form of intelligent rooms and personal
assistants.

   We invite papers describing theoretical and/or experimental research, as
well as position papers and descriptions of prototype smart home efforts.
