    [BibTeX] [Abstract]

    With the ongoing rise of smartphones as everyday mobile devices and their steadily increasing amount of sensing and communication capabilities, we are on the brink of a subtle, widespread adoption of context-aware computing techniques into our daily lives. Focusing on functionality and performance, the majority of existing architectures for managing context information typically deploy central components for collecting, analyzing and distributing its users‘ up-to-date data. However, preservation of users‘ privacy needs remains a crucial factor for such systems‘ acceptableness. Inspired by existing works on privacy in context-aware applications and the authors‘ beliefs in the necessity to put users back in control, this article adopts a privacy-centric perspective and presents ALPACA: A novel approach for modeling and managing a user’s rich context information in a user-centric and privacy-preserving way fit for a multitude of different usage scenarios. To this end, this article offers a general conceptual mapping of a user’s privacy needs to distinct layers. Based on this conceptualization we introduce a privacy-centric approach for modeling this information. Additionally, we propose a context-aware mechanism for the definition of context-dependent release triggers in order to enable fine-grained control over the disclosure of sensitive information. Finally, we present the components of the proposed system architecture, explain how they interact with each other and discuss how our framework can be integrated into a modern mobile operating system.

    [BibTeX] [Abstract]

    Participatory sensing tries to create cost-effective, large-scale sensing systems by leveraging sensors embedded in mobile devices. One major challenge in these systems is to protect the users‘ privacy, since users will not contribute data if their privacy is jeopardized. Especially location data needs to be protected if it is likely to reveal information about the users‘ identities. A common solution is the blinding out approach that creates so-called ban zones in which location data is not published. Thereby, a user’s important places, e.g., her home or workplace, can be concealed. However, ban zones of a fixed size are not able to guarantee any particular level of privacy. For instance, a ban zone that is large enough to conceal a user’s home in a large city might be too small in a less populated area. For this reason, we propose an approach for dynamic map-based blinding out: The boundaries of our privacy zones, called Silent Zones, are determined in such way that at least k buildings are located within this zone. Thus, our approach adapts to the habitat density and we can guarantee k-anonymity in terms of surrounding buildings. In this paper, we present two new algorithms for creating Silent Zones and evaluate their performance. Our results show that especially in worst case scenarios, i.e., in sparsely populated areas, our approach outperforms standard ban zones and guarantees the specified privacy level.

    [BibTeX] [Abstract]

    Context-aware computing has been an intensively researched topic for years already. Consequently, there exists a plethora of usage scenarios for context-aware applications as well as several approaches for the modeling and management of a user’s context information, many of which focus on the efficient and scalable distribution of the latter. With the ongoing rise of smartphones as everyday mobile devices and their steadily increasing amount of sensing and communication capabilities, we finally find ourselves at the edge towards a widespread usage of these techniques. However, apart from technical issues such as how to reliably determine a user’s current context, privacy still remains a crucial factor for these systems’ acceptance rate. Therefore, inspired by earlier works on privacy in context-aware computing and the authors’ beliefs in the necessity to put users in control, this paper presents a novel approach for modeling and managing a mobile user’s context information in a user-centric and privacy-preserving way. To this end, this work’s contribution is twofold: First, based on widely recognized requirements for privacy in context-aware applications, we propose a privacy-centric context model which allows for an intuitive and context-dependent definition of a user’s privacy preferences, directly integrating privacy aspects into the context model itself. Second, we present a generic and flexible architecture for the management and distribution of context information in a privacy-preserving way fit for a multitude of different usage scenarios.

    With the now widespread usage of increasingly powerful smartphones, pro-active, context-aware, and thereby unobstrusive applications have become possible. A user’s current activity is a primary piece of contextual information, and especially in urban areas, a user’s current mode of transport is an important part of her activity. A lot of research has been conducted on automatically recognizing different means of transport, but up to now, no attempt has been made to perform a fine-grained classification of different activities related to travelling by local public transport. In this work, we present an approach to recognize 17 different activities related to travelling by subway. We use only the sensor technology available in modern mobile phones and achieve a high classification accuracy of over 90%, without requiring a specific carrying position of the device. We discuss the usefulness of different sensors and computed features, and identify individual characteristics of the considered activities.

    [BibTeX] [Abstract]

    Location information is the foundation for location based services. However, a cheap and global indoor positioning solution offering a sufficiently high accuracy and precision for most applications is not yet available and detains location based services from indoor areas. This is also due to missing comparability and standards in the field of indoor positioning, resulting in a large number of proprietary research prototypes of varying capabilities. In this paper we present a software environment for testing and comparing sensor fusion algorithms in indoor positioning scenarios. For this purpose an extendable tool for evaluating accuracy, precision, robustness, complexity, and storage is designed and the results from a first implementation presented and discussed.

    [BibTeX] [Abstract]

    In the last couple of years, the number of smartphone users has proliferated. As smartphones contain a lot of different sensors, research interest in algorithms combining data of several sensors to derive meaningful information about a user’s context, e.g. her location, is increasing. Ideas for reasonable algorithms often can be found by looking at examples of raw (or somehow pre-processed) sensor data. Still, the research community lacks a simple means to intuitively work with several parallel tracks of time series data. We present a tool which can be used to visualize and edit time dependent data from various sensors along with ground truth recordings like audio or video files. It is complemented by an optional application for logging all kinds of sensor data on Android devices. The tool has already been used to analyze a large data set containing hundreds of walking traces, intended to improve pedestrian dead reckoning algorithms.

    [BibTeX] [Abstract] [Download PDF]

    Location-based Access Control often relies a location proof, which ensures that a specific user is at a specific location. These locations are most often inferred from measurements. As a consequence, such systems are never trustworthy. An attacker can simply fake sensor measurements or even sensor data in absence of a trusted measurement module. Moreover, the measurement data is typically stable over time at a fixed location and can thus be replayed at later times. With this paper, we propose a system, which can provide functionality for a location proof, which does not rely on measurements and does not suffer from replay attacks. Therefore, a self-contained system is generating signed one-time passwords and communicates them via 2D barcodes for authentication of camera-enabled devices being in a specific location.

    abstract = {Location-based Access Control often relies a location proof, which ensures that a specific user is at a specific location. These locations are most often inferred from measurements. As a consequence, such systems are never trustworthy. An attacker can simply fake sensor measurements or even sensor data in absence of a trusted measurement module. Moreover, the measurement data is typically stable over time at a fixed location and can thus be replayed at later times. With this paper, we propose a system, which can provide functionality for a location proof, which does not rely on measurements and does not suffer from replay attacks. Therefore, a self-contained system is generating signed one-time passwords and communicates them via 2D barcodes for authentication of camera-enabled devices being in a specific location.},
