Increased availability of wearable devices, smart phones establishes a platform for designing innovative distributed crowd sourcing mobile applications. These applications can take advantage of computation offloading to augment the constrained resources and unavailability of required context on single mobile device. ContextMete is an offloading architecture that execute such applications across the...
Commercially available wearables and apps that convert mobile devices into data collection hubs can be used to implement smart applications in aware cities. In this paper, we consider wearable devices on various human users as a networked cluster of computing power and information source in an Internet-of-People architecture. Applications can be developed to perform computation on this data and gain...
This paper presents how the stochastic simulation based genetic algorithm (GA) can be used to the fuzzy goal programming (FGP) formulation of a chance constrained multiobjective decision making (MODM) problem. In the proposed approach, a stochastic simulation to the chance constraints having the continuous random parameters is introduced first to determine the candidate solutions in the decision making...
The increasing commercial potential and rapid growth of location based services (LBS) have been accompanied by concerns over the collection and use of personal information by LBS providers. In this paper we study the influence of three privacy assurance approaches that might be used to ensure privacy in location-based services. With the usage context included as a covariate, we examine the influence...
