Context-aware and pro-active queue management systems in intelligent environments

The Ambient intelligence (AmI) paradigm refers to electronic environments which are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. Queue systems are practically used in various institutions and commercial enterprises constituting a challenge for the intelligent environments in smart cities. The management of the customer flows guarantees elimination or reduction of the queues as well as the economic benefits which follow the clients' satisfaction of the better service quality. There has been proposed the intelligent queue management system designed as the pro-active and context-aware system basing on multiple low-level sensors and devices constituting the IoT (Internet of Things) network. The designed context-driven system is characterized by user friendliness, as well as the client behavior understanding to generate actions that support clients. There has been proposed the conceptual version of the system. The selected aspects of the prototype version has been simulated. This prototype can be used as the necessary experience for building the target system meeting the precise needs and assumptions typical for context-aware and pro-active system basing on IoT networks.
