Abstract = {Home automation has recently gained a new momentum  thanks to the ever-increasing commercial availability of domotic com-  ponents. In this context, researchers are working to provide interopera-  tion mechanisms and to add intelligence on top of them. For supporting  intelligent behaviors, house modeling is an essential requirement to un-  derstand current and future house states and to possibly drive more  complex actions. In this paper we propose a new house modeling on-  tology designed to fit real world domotic system capabilities and to  support interoperation between currently available and future solutions.  Taking advantage of technologies developed in the context of the Se-  mantic Web, the DogOnt ontology supports device/network independent  description of houses, including both “controllable” and architectural el-  ements. States and functionalities are automatically associated to the  modeled elements through proper inheritance mechanisms and by means  of properly defined SWRL auto-completion rules which ease the mod-  eling process, while automatic device recognition is achieved through  classification reasoning.},
