Description
To make decisions or take actions should be based on the evaluation of multiple parameters. Sensor input, position data and context will influence the decision. The goal of this master thesis is to create a semantically based decision engine, which allows actions like "_if the value of CO increases with 5 %/min send a warning to phone, unless it's less than 1 % in total_". Applications: Tactical warforce (decision making), environmental monitoring (air pollution),..

Goals
Having finished the master thesis, the student will demonstrate how to:
- Establish a domain-specific ontology that reflects the entities and associations relevant to decision-making.
