We are heading towards a technological and hyper-connected world where every building is going to be full of sensors and actuators to monitor and interact with it, in what is known as an Ambient Intelligence (AmI) environment. The main problem when creating such environment is how expensive it can be, so a tool such a simulator could help to improve the way in which the devices are installed, testing with different configurations until you arrive to the optimal one. Also this simulator could help once the infrastructure is created to detect certain events before they happen, being able to apply a countermeasure. In this paper we propose the architecture to integrate a social and a network simulation in order to create a simulation for an AmI environment.
