Many software systems, such as online social networks enable users to share information about themselves. While the action of sharing is simple, it requires an elaborate thought process on privacy: what to share, with whom to share, and for…
Background knowledge is an important factor in privacy preserving data publishing. Distribution-based background knowledge is one of the well studied background knowledge. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no existing work…
Wearable devices like smartwatches, wristbands, and fitness trackers are designed to be lightweight devices to be worn on the human body. With the increased connectivity of wearable devices, they will become integral to remote healthcare…
We propose a novel payment mechanism for use by victims of large-scale conflict or natural disasters to conduct critical economic transactions and rebuild damaged infrastructure in the absence of both cash and traditional electronic payment…
