This paper analyses the concept of Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI), an emerging approach for establishing digital identity, in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT). We contrast existing approaches for identity on the Internet, such as…
The IoT ecosystem suffers from a variety of problems around security, identity, access control, data flow and data storage that introduce friction into interactions between various parties. In many respects, the situation is similar to the…
Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, and particularly deep learning systems, are traditionally the domain of large-scale cloud servers, which have access to high computational and energy resources. Nonetheless, in Internet-of-Things…
In the context of industrial environment, devices, such as robots and drones, are vulnerable to malicious activities such device tampering (e.g., hardware and software changes). The problem becomes even worse in a multi-stakeholder…
This paper introduces PersonaAI, a cutting-edge application that leverages Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and the LLAMA model to create highly personalized digital avatars capable of accurately mimicking individual personalities.…
Typically, recommender systems from any domain, be it movies, music, restaurants, etc., are organized in a centralized fashion. The service provider holds all the data, biases in the recommender algorithms are not transparent to the user,…
While commonly used for communication purposes, an increasing number of recent studies consider WiFi for sensing. In particular, wireless signals are altered (e.g., reflected and attenuated) by the human body and objects in the environment.…
Ad-hoc Social Networks have become popular to support novel applications related to location-based mobile services that are of great importance to users and businesses. Unlike traditional social services using a centralized server to fetch…
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) specifically Name Data Networking (NDN) is the name-base (content-base) networking and takes named-contents as "first class citizen", being considered as the ideal candidate to form the Future Internet…
In this paper, we present an unsupervised learning approach to identify the user points of interest (POI) by exploiting WiFi measurements from smartphone application data. Due to the lack of GPS positioning accuracy in indoor, sheltered,…
Continuous Authentication (CA) has been proposed as a potential solution to counter complex cybersecurity attacks that exploit conventional static authentication mechanisms that authenticate users only at an ingress point. However, widely…
In a contemporary world, people become dependent on electronic devices. Technologies help to clarification and structure life in many ways to meet the need of the children oriented requirements. The children suffering from disabilities…
Privacy has always been a critical issue in the digital era, particularly with the increasing use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. As the IoT continues to transform industries such as healthcare, smart cities, and home automation, it…
A peer-to-peer system is a distributed system in which equal nodes (in terms of role and usage) exchange information and services directly. This paper describes a distributed peer-to-peer protocol that allows wifi-enabled smart devices…
Cyber-Physical convergence, the fast expansion of the Internet at its edge, and tighter interactions between human users and their personal mobile devices push towards an Internet where the human user becomes more central than ever, and…
