Abstract
Visual sensors are an indispensable
prerequisite for those AmI environments that require a surveillance component.
One practical issue concerns maximizing the operational longevity of such
sensors as the operational lifetime of an AmI environment itself is dependent
on that of its constituent components.
In this paper, the intelligent agent paradigm is considered as a basis
for managing a camera collective such
that the conflicting demands of power usage optimization and system performance
are reconciled.
