The plummeting cost of Bluetooth tags and the ubiquity of mobile devices are revolutionizing the traditional lost-and-found service. This paper presents SecureFind, a secure and privacy-preserving object-finding system via mobile…
Within a modern democratic nation, elections play a significant role in the nation's functioning. However, with the existing infrastructure for conducting elections using Electronic Voting Systems (EVMs), many loopholes exist, which…
In pervasive computing environment, Location Based Services (LBSs) are getting popularity among users because of their usefulness in day-to-day life. LBSs are information services that use geospatial data of mobile device and smart phone…
This work introduces a preference learning method that ensures adherence to given specifications, with an application to autonomous vehicles. Our approach incorporates the priority ordering of Signal Temporal Logic (STL) formulas describing…
The task of infectious disease contact tracing is crucial yet challenging, especially when meeting strict privacy requirements. Previous attempts in this area have had limitations in terms of applicable scenarios and efficiency. Our paper…
Taking into account of both the huge computing power of intruders and untrusted cloud servers, we develop an enhanced secure pseudonym scheme to protect the privacy of mobile cloud data. To face the huge computing power challenge, we…
A leading industry standard for secure and trusted communication in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) is the Security Credential Management System (SCMS). It uses anonymous certificates, functioning as pseudonyms, to preserve the privacy…
Group authentication is a method of confirmation that a set of users belong to a group and of distributing a common key among them. Unlike the standard authentication schemes where one central authority authenticates users one by one, group…
Do people care about their location privacy while using location-based service apps? This paper aims to answer this question and several other hypotheses through a survey, and review the privacy preservation techniques. Our results indicate…
By 2050, electric vehicles (EVs) are projected to account for 70% of global vehicle sales. While EVs provide environmental benefits, they also pose challenges for energy generation, grid infrastructure, and data privacy. Current research on…
Location-Based Services (LBSs) offer significant convenience to mobile users but pose significant privacy risks, as attackers can infer sensitive personal information through spatiotemporal correlations in user trajectories. Since users'…
We study the system-level effects of the introduction of large populations of Electric Vehicles on the power and transportation networks. We assume that each EV owner solves a decision problem to pick a cost-minimizing charge and travel…
Mobile payment systems are increasingly used to simplify the way in which money transfers and transactions can be performed. We argue that, to achieve their full potential as economic boosters in developing countries, mobile payment systems…
This paper presents a matching mechanism for assigning drivers to routes where the drivers pay a toll for the marginal delay they impose on other drivers. The simple matching mechanism is derived from the RANKING algorithm for online…
The use of trajectory data with abundant spatial-temporal information is pivotal in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and various traffic system tasks. Location-Based Services (LBS) capitalize on this trajectory data to offer users…
Group signatures allow users of a group to sign messages anonymously in the name of the group, while incorporating a tracing mechanism to revoke anonymity and identify the signer of any message. Since its introduction by Chaum and van Heyst…
The measurement and provision of precise and upto-date traffic-related key performance indicators is a key element and crucial factor for intelligent traffic controls systems in upcoming smart cities. The street network is considered as a…
While becoming more and more present in our every day lives, services that operate on users' locations or location trajectories suffer from general fear of misappropriation of the transmitted location data. Several works have investigated…
Limiting online data collection to the minimum required for specific purposes is mandated by modern privacy legislation such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Protection Act. This is particularly…
Obtaining the position of ego-vehicle is a crucial prerequisite for automatic control and path planning in the field of autonomous driving. Most existing positioning systems rely on GPS, RTK, or wireless signals, which are arduous to…
