Security Module of Smart Home

This document specifies use cases for the Security Module (SM) of Smart Home. Several configurations (or instances of this product line) are specified here. The goal is to read such specifications (or use case scenarios) and try to identify its common and variant elements. After that, these scenarios, which are not well modularized in this document, should be restructured using one specific approach for describing variabilities in use cases scenarios (PLUSS or Crosscutting).

In order to perform this work, we suggest the following sequence of activities:

  1. Read the different configurations of Smart Home Security Module
  2. Identifies the common and variable elements of the specification
  3. Represent a feature model describing the common and variant features
  4. Create instances of the feature model representing each configuration
  5. Restructure the product specific scenarios, generating a SPL use case model
  6. Relate features in the feature model to the scenarios in the use case model

The first activities are independent of the approach used for specifying variabilities in use case scenarios. On the other hand, activities (v) and (vi) are dependent of the selected approach.

For each activity, we expect the following outputs:

  1. Description of the technique applied in the execution.
  2. The amount of time required to perform the activity.

Overview of the Security Module

The SM offers one of the most expected subset of features for smart home configurations. It is responsible for detecting, notifying, and dealing with several security issues, such as intrusion and firing. This module can be customized in several ways, enabling the execution of different actions for each kind of event.

This module requires interaction with sensors for intrusion, presence, and fire detection; and may interact with different partners (police department, fireguard department, and so on) for dealing with each specific issue. Also, the system may provide different management mechanisms, both locally as remotely mechanisms, and provides different interfaces with the home owner.

Figure 1 depicts a high level view of SM use cases (just a scratch of the use case model). Then, in later sections, we describe detailed specifications of such use cases for different versions (products) of this module.

Actors

Home Owner: Represents the home owner, being responsible for configuring the whole module.

Inhabitant: Represents an inhabitant of the smart home, which requires access for get in the home and also might configure policies for specific environment. Police and Fireguard Departments: Represent external systems that this module might interact in order to notify specific events.

Independent Fire Control System: Represent a third-part system responsible for handling with burn accidents. The full description of this system is out of the scope of this document.

Presence and Fire Sensors: Represent the devices used for detecting intrusion and fire issues.

Use cases

Configure Security Management: This use case allows the owner of a smart home to configure the security module behavior. Several characteristics may be configured, such as access policies, presence information, and so on.

Request Access to the Home: This use case allows a registered inhabitant of the smart home to enter into the house. Different techniques of controlling the inhabitant access can be deployed.

Configure Access to Specific Environments: This use case allows the configuration of access rules to specific environments. In order to change the access rules of a specific environment, an inhabitant must have sufficient privileges.

Intrusion Detection: This use case is responsible for catching any attempt to intrude the smart home. Several events are used to characterize this kind of attempt, such as doors and windows breaking. If one of this events occurs, several actions might be triggered (lock the child bedroom doors, for instance).
