  iCasa Simulator

ICasa Simulator is a digital home simulator developed in the context of the Medical project by the ADELE Research Group. The very purpose of iCasa is to provide developers of pervasive applications with a simulated environment enabling complete control of the environment and time.

Specifically, iCasa Simulator provides:

• A graphical user interface: The interface displays a map of the house and the localization of the different devices. It allows developers to create and configure devices, create and move physical users, and watch their actual configurations.
• Scripting facilities: iCasa supports the scripts writing to control the environment. Scripts provide a convenient way to test the applications under reproducible conditions.
• Notification facilities: iCasa is event-based and is able to notify subscribers of any modifications in the environment.
