Abstraction for Privacy in Context-Aware Environments

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCCN,volume 3744))

Abstract

Privacy protection operation may block customized services in context aware systems. Adopting good privacy policies will be helpful to avoid such unfortunate situations, but traditional access control policies are not enough for this purpose. This paper proposes a privacy policy description mechanism for context-aware systems. It provides the facilities to describe abstraction on context data, in order to prevent invading user’s privacy, while keeping the context-aware serves continuing.

This research is supported by the Ubiquitous Autonomic Computing and Network Project, the Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) 21st Century Frontier R&D Program in Korea.
