In this paper, we developed an intelligent minimized integrated digital public address which can provide context awareness of various events occurring in future intelligent buildings. It is able to recognize both voices and sounds, such as a fire bell and a disaster bell, which signal to escape in emergence situations and it can sense information which is sent from various sensors, for example, the inner temperature, humidity, and environment status in an intelligent building. Also, the intelligent digital integrated public address can broadcast information to individual places, according to context awareness that is from sensing information, by using network with an ID. And we are developing a minimized integrated digital public address system that has facilities such as external input, Mic., CD, MP3 and Radio. Developing an integrated digital public address system with operational MICOM will make it possible to control the facilities of digital devices centrally. The operational MICOM is composed of 3 layers which are a control layer, a processing layer and a user interface layer.

In this paper, we developed a digital and integrated PA(Public Address) system with speech recognition and sensor connection based on IP with an ID using agent. It has facilities such as an external input, a microphone and a radio for a PA system and has speech recognition. If "fire" is spoken to the PA system then it can recognize the emergency situation and will broadcast information to the appropriate agency immediately. In addition to that, many sensors, such as temperature, humidity, and infrared, etc., can be connected to the PA system and can be integrated with the context awareness which contains many types of information about internal statuses using inference agent. Also, developed the digital integrated PA system will make it possible to broadcast the message to adaptable places using network IP based on IDs. Finally, the digital PA system is designed for operation from a PC, which makes installation and setting of operating parameters very simple and user-friendly. For implementation details, we implemented thread based concurrent processing for the events which occur concurrently from many sensors or users.
