Abstract-Nowadays sensors and actuators are increasingly used in different spaces, creating intelligent environment. This article aims to describe a conceptualization of an intelligent environment and its operation, in order to check its consistency and its conformity. This conceptualization is done through an ontology representing the domain knowledge, whose elements will be instantiated from natural language texts describing the physical configuration of an intelligent environment and a scenario describing the operation desired by the user of the environment. We chose OWL to represent formally our environment augmented with SWRL rules to represent the dynamic aspect of the operation system and SQWRL to query our conceptual model. We show how consistency and conformity are checked thanks to this formalism.
Sadoun et al. REF start from natural language descriptions of an installation and its operation scenarios to derive a model of the environment.
