  • Programming Iot Devices by Demonstration Using Mobile Apps
    Programming IoT Devices by Demonstration Using Mobile Apps Toby Jia-Jun Li1(✉), Yuanchun Li2, Fanglin Chen1, and Brad A. Myers1(✉) 1 Human-Computer Interaction Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA {tobyli,bam}@cs.cmu.edu, [email protected] 2 School of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science, Peking University, Beijing, China [email protected] Abstract. The revolutionary advances of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and applications have helped IoT emerge as an increasingly important domain for end-user development (EUD). Past research has shown that end users desire to create various customized automations, which would often utilize multiple IoT devices. Many solutions exist to support EUD across multiple IoT devices, but they are limited to devices from the same manufacturer, within the same “eco- system” or supporting a common API. We present EPIDOSITE, a mobile program‐ ming-by-demonstration system that addresses this limitation by leveraging the smartphone as a hub for IoT automation. It enables the creation of automations for most consumer IoT devices on smartphones by demonstrating the desired behaviors through directly manipulating the corresponding smartphone app for each IoT device. EPIDOSITE also supports using the smartphone app usage context and external web services as triggers and data for automations, enabling the crea‐ tion of highly context-aware IoT applications. Keywords: Internet of Things · Programming by demonstration · End user development 1 Introduction In the recent years, the rapid growth of Internet of Things (IoT) has surrounded users with various smart appliances, sensors and devices. Through their connections, these smart objects can understand and react to their environment, enabling novel computing applications [39].
