Abstract: The recent developments in the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigms have significantly influenced human life, which made their lives much more comfortable, secure and relaxed. With the remarkable upsurge of the smart systems and applications, people are becoming addicted to using these devices and having many dependencies on them. With the advent of modern smart healthcare systems, and significant advancements in IoT enabled technologies have facilitated patients and physicians to be connected in real-time for providing healthcare services whenever and wherever needed. These systems often consist of tiny sensors and usually run on smart devices using mobile applications. However, these systems become even more challenging when there is a need to take intelligent decision making dynamically in a highly decentralized environment. In this paper, we propose a Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) based multi-agent formalism for ontology-driven healthcare systems that perform BDI based reasoning to take intelligent decision making dynamically in order to achieve the desired goals. We illustrate the use of the proposed approach using a simple case study with the prototypal implementation of heart monitoring applications.

Keywords: Internet of Things; BDI reasoning agents; ontology; smart healthcare
