Privacy for Location-based Services
Sharing of location data enables numerous exciting applications, such as location-based queries, location-based social recommendations, monitoring of traffic and air pollution levels, etc. Disclosing exact user locations raises serious privacy concerns, as locations may give away sensitive information about individuals' health status, alternative lifestyles, political and religious affiliations, etc. Preserving location privacy is an essential requirement towards the successful deployment of location-based applications. These lecture notes provide an overview of the state-of-the-art in location privacy protection. A diverse body of solutions is reviewed, including methods that use location generalization, cryptographic techniques or differential privacy. The most prominent results are discussed, and promising directions for future work are identified.
Blocks and Chains
The new field of cryptographic currencies and consensus ledgers, commonly referred to as blockchains, is receiving increasing interest from various different communities. These communities are very diverse and amongst others include: technical enthusiasts, activist groups, researchers from various disciplines, start ups, large enterprises, public authorities, banks, financial regulators, business men, investors, and also criminals. The scientific community adapted relatively slowly to this emerging and fast-moving field of cryptographic currencies and consensus ledgers. This was one reason that, for quite a while, the only resources available have been the Bitcoin source code, blog and forum...
Hardware Malware
In our digital world, integrated circuits are present in nearly every moment of our daily life. Even when using the coffee machine in the morning, or driving our car to work, we interact with integrated circuits. The increasing spread of information technology in virtually all areas of life in the industrialized world offers a broad range of attack vectors. So far, mainly software-based attacks have been considered and investigated, while hardware-based attacks have attracted comparatively little interest. The design and production process of integrated circuits is mostly decentralized due to financial and logistical reasons. Therefore, a high level of trust has to be established between the...
Database Systems for Advanced Applications
This two volume set LNCS 9049 and LNCS 9050 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2015, held in Hanoi, Vietnam, in April 2015. The 63 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 287 submissions. The papers cover the following topics: data mining; data streams and time series; database storage and index; spatio-temporal data; modern computing platform; social networks; information integration and data quality; information retrieval and summarization; security and privacy; outlier and imbalanced data analysis; probabilistic and uncertain data; query processing.
Web Technologies and Applications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th Asia-Pacific Conference APWeb 2015 held in Guangzhou, China, in September 2015. The 67 full papers and presented together with 3 industrial track papers and 7 demonstration track papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 146 submissions. The papers cover a wide spectrum of Web-related data management problems, and provide a thorough view on the rapid advances of technical solutions.
Advances in Spatial and Temporal Databases
The refereed proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Spatial and Temporal Databases, SSTD 2007, held in Boston, MA, USA in July 2007. The 26 revised full papers were thoroughly reviewed and selected from a total of 76 submissions. The papers are classified in the following categories, each corresponding to a conference session: continuous monitoring, indexing and query processing, mining, aggregation and interpolation, semantics and modeling, privacy, uncertainty and approximation, streaming data, distributed systems, and spatial networks.
Advances in Computer Systems Architecture
On behalf of the ProgramCommittee, we are pleased to present the proceedings of the 2005 Asia-Paci?c Computer Systems Architecture Conference (ACSAC 2005) held in the beautiful and dynamic country of Singapore. This conference was the tenth in its series, one of the leading forums for sharing the emerging research ?ndings in this ?eld. In consultation with the ACSAC Steering Committee, we selected a - member Program Committee. This Program Committee represented a broad spectrum of research expertise to ensure a good balance of research areas, - stitutions and experience while maintaining the high quality of this conference series. This year’s committee was of the same size as last year but...
Privacy Risk Analysis of Online Social Networks
The social benefit derived from Online Social Networks (OSNs) can lure users to reveal unprecedented volumes of personal data to an online audience that is much less trustworthy than their offline social circle. Even if a user hides his personal data from some users and shares with others, privacy settings of OSNs may be bypassed, thus leading to various privacy harms such as identity theft, stalking, or discrimination. Therefore, users need to be assisted in understanding the privacy risks of their OSN profiles as well as managing their privacy settings so as to keep such risks in check, while still deriving the benefits of social network participation. This book presents to its readers how privacy risk analysis concepts such as privacy harms and risk sources can be used to develop mechanisms for privacy scoring of user profiles and for supporting users in privacy settings management in the context of OSNs. Privacy scoring helps detect and minimize the risks due to the dissemination and use of personal data. The book also discusses many open problems in this area to encourage further research.
Scientific and Statistical Database Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Scientific and Statistical Database Management, SSDBM 2008, held in Hong Kong, China, in July 2008. The 28 revised full papers, 7 revised short papers and 8 poster and demo papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 84 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on query optimization in scientific databases, privacy, searching and mining graphs, data streams, scientific database applications, advanced indexing methods, data mining, as well as advanced queries and uncertain data.
