Self-organization is a great concept for building scalable systems consisting of a huge number of subsystems. The primary objectives are improved scalability and dynamic adaptatio...
The large scale adoption of adaptive services in pervasive and mobile computing is likely to be conditioned to the availability of reliable privacy-preserving technologies. Unfort...
In this paper we present a framework to provide dependability through accountability. Our proposal exploits the asymmetry present in the majority of sensor data processing to chea...
This paper introduces and solves a security problem of pervasive computing: how to define authorizations for offline interactions when trust relationships among entities do not ex...
There is growing interest in the use of context-awareness as a technique for developing pervasive computing applications that are flexible, adaptable, and capable of acting autono...
