Towards Privacy Protection in a Middleware for Context-awareness
نویسندگان
چکیده
Privacy is recognized as a fundamental issue for the provision of context-aware services. In this paper we present work in progress regarding the definition of a comprehensive framework for supporting context-aware services while protecting users’ privacy. Our proposal is based on a combination of mechanisms for enforcing context-aware privacy policies and k -anonymity. Moreover, our proposed technique involves the use of stereotypes for generalizing precise identity information to the aim of protecting users’ privacy.
