Multi-Agent Systems and Ontology for Supporting Management System in Smart School

The increasing deployment of information and communication technologies in our daily life allows administrators to manage their work with more flexibility and comfortability. In this paper, we present our work, which takes advantage of different technologies such as ontology and agent system for smart school management, especially in the classroom. This work is designed to help administrators to identify any activities that occur at the classroom level, such as tracking the attendance of the student or teacher. We use the ontology to model the context in an intelligent environment for facilitating information integration and knowledge sharing between heterogeneous knowledge and information sources in smart school. In this paper, we describe the interaction of intelligent multi-agent systems running on network, sensor networks and ontologies into the architecture aiming at increasing the management capabilities in smart school and generate automatically detailed reports of the environment with minimal time and effort.
