@inproceedings { , title = {Evaluating an emergent behaviour algorithm in JCSP for energy conservation in lighting systems.}, abstract = {Since the invention of the light bulb, artificial light is accompanying people all around the world every day and night. As the light bulb itself evolved a lot through years, light control systems are still switch-based and require users to make most of decisions about its behaviour. This paper presents an algorithm for emergent behaviour in a lighting system to achieve stable, user defined light level, while saving energy. The algorithm employs a parallel design and was tested using JCSP.}, conference = {33rd Communicating Process Architecture (CPA) conference}, doi = {10.3233/978-1-60750-774-1-143}, isbn = {978 1 60750 773 4}, organization = {Limerick, Ireland}, pages = {143-156}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {IOS Press}, url = {http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/5300}, volume = {68}, keyword = {621.3 Electrical & electronic engineering, TK Electrical engineering.
