Peer-to-Peer (P2P) has been a major component in raising piracy (or shadow diffusion) over the Internet, similarly Personal Network (PN) will even further enhance the usage of P2P applications. The diffusion of data will be more dynamic as the market structure would change. Piracy of information would still be a major concern due to enhanced usage of P2P based applications, but studies show that piracy...
The trend on the proliferation of handheld devices triggered an increase on the development of pervasive and personalized mobile applications that exploit and support peer-to-peer/ad-hoc networks. This creates the conditions and motivation for a mobile electronic ID system, preferably one which provides a friendly privacy solution. The existing mobile identification solutions place the interviewer...
In this paper the authors present the challenges for enabling security policies management and subsequent ubiquitous access control on the personal network (PN) environment. A solution based on security profiles is proposed, supporting both partially distributed architectures-having in this case distributed master devices acting as access points- and also pure peer-to-peer interactions inside the...

This paper describes the European FP6 IST project, called MAGNET, whose goal is to enable commercially viable personal networks (PN) that are affordable, user-friendly and beneficial to all kinds of users in all aspects of their everyday life. While the project adopts a system approach to personal area network (PAN), it does not treat PANs in isolation. The project builds upon significant advances...
