Abstract:
With the rapid development of GPS-equipped smart mobile devices and mobile computing, location-based services (LBS) are increasing in popularity in the Internet of Things (IoT). Although LBS provide enormous benefits to users, they inevitably introduce some significant privacy concerns. To protect user privacy, a variety of location privacy-preserving schemes have been recently proposed. Among these schemes, the dummy-based location privacy-preserving (DLP) scheme is a widely used approach to achieve location privacy for mobile users. However, the computation cost of the existing dummy-based l

We created a spatial location identification task (SpLIT) in which workers recruited from Amazon Mechanical Turk were presented with a camera view of a location, and were asked to identify the location on a two-dimensional map. In cases where these cues were ambiguous or did not provide enough information to pinpoint the exact location, workers had to make a best guess. We tested the effects of two reward schemes. In the “ground truth” scheme, workers were rewarded if their answers were close enough to the correct locations. In the “majority vote” scheme, workers were told that they would be r

Abstract:
Geographic routing is an appealing method for wireless sensor networks, as it routes data packets solely based on nodes’ location information rather than global network topology. A fundamental requirement for geographic routing is that source nodes must know the locations of sink nodes to deliver their data. To efficiently provide sink location information, quorum-based sink location service schemes have been introduced, using crossing points between sink location announcement (SLA) and sink location query (SLQ) quorums. However, existing quorum-based schemes typically construct quorums along

Many mobile agent system-related services and applications require interacting with a mobile agent by passing messages.

In addition to downgrading the overall performance of a mobile agent location management scheme, excessive transmission of messages increases the network load. The mi

Abstract:
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are deployed in sensitive applications, such as in military and asset monitoring. In these applications, it is important to ensure good source location privacy. This is owing to the open nature of WSNs and the easiness of an adversary to eavesdrop on sensor communication and back trace the location of the source node. This paper proposes a scheme to preserve the source location privacy based on random routing techniques. To achieve high privacy, packets are randomly routed from the source to the sink node through strategically positioned mediate or diversion nod

Abstract:
Users who initiate continuous location queries are prone to trajectory information leakage, and the obtained query information is not effectively utilized. To address these problems, we propose a continuous location query protection scheme based on caching and an adaptive variable-order Markov model. When a user initiates a query request, we first query the cache information to obtain the required data. When the local cache cannot satisfy the user’s demand, we use a variable-order Markov model to predict the user’s future query location and generate a k-anonymous set based on the predicted loc

Abstract:
The prosperity of location-based services (LBSs) makes more and more people pay close attention to personal privacy. In order to preserve users privacy, several schemes utilized a trusted third party (TTP) to obfuscate users, but these schemes were suspected as the TTP may become the single point of failure or service performance bottleneck. To alleviate the suspicion, schemes with collaborative users to achieve [Formula: see text]-anonymity were proposed. In these schemes, users equipped with short-range communication devices could communicate with adjacent users to establish an anonymous gro

Abstract:
Location sharing service has become an indispensable part in mobile social networks. However, location sharing may introduce a new class of privacy threats ranging from localizing an individual to profiling and identifying him based on the places he shared. Although users may avoid releasing geocontent in sensitive locations, it does not necessarily prevent the adversary from inferring users’ privacy through space-temporal correlations and historical information. In this paper, we design a Prophet framework, which provides an effective security scheme for users sharing their location informati

Abstract:
In this paper, a fault protection diagnostic scheme for a power distribution system is proposed. The scheme comprises a wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) for signal processing and analysis and a support vector machine (SMV) for fault classification and location. The scheme is tested on a reduced Eskom 132 kV power line. The WPD is used to extract fault signatures of interest and the SVM is subsequently used for fault classification and locating various fault conditions. Furthermore, we investigate the effectiveness of the SVM scheme using different samples of the cycles for fault classificati

Abstract:
Because much interest in spatial database for cloud computing has been attracted, studies on preserving location data privacy have been actively done. However, since the existing spatial transformation schemes are weak to a proximity attack, they cannot preserve the privacy of users who enjoy location-based services in the cloud computing. Therefore, a transformation scheme is required for providing a safe service to users. We, in this paper, propose a new transformation scheme based on a line symmetric transformation (LST). The proposed scheme performs both LST-based data distribution and err

Pervasive smartphones boost the prosperity of location-based service (LBS) and the increasing data prompt LBS providers to outsource their LBS datasets to the cloud side. The privacy issues of LBS in the outsourced cloud scenario have attracted considerable interest recently. However, current schemes cannot provide sufficient privacy preservation against practical challenges and are little concerned about the data retrieval efficiency of the cloud side. Therefore, we present an efficient Privacy-Preserving LBS Query Scheme (i.e., PPQS ). In our scheme, two cloud entities are employed to store

Now, many application services based on location data have brought a lot of convenience to people’s daily life. However, publishing location data may divulge individual sensitive information.

Closed-form expression of three-dimensional emitter location estimation using azimuth and elevation measurements at multiple locations is presented in this paper. The three-dimensional location estimate is obtained from three-dimensional sensor locations and the azimuth and elevation measurements at each sensor location. Since the formulation is not iterative, it is not computationally intensive and does not need initial location estimate. Numerical results are presented to show the validity of the proposed scheme.

With the proliferation of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), the users’ trajectory data containing privacy information in the IoT systems are easily exposed to the adversaries in continuous location-based services (LBSs) and trajectory publication.

This would cause that the adversaries can easily exclude the dummy trajectories according to the obtained geographic feature information.
