Synopsis

Pervasive and ubiquitous computing offers significant potential for improving our lives. A feature of pervasive and ubiquitous computing is that it collects and moves huge amounts of data that are about us or belong to us. This huge and fast-growing collection of personal data offers great potential benefits such as augmented cognition and life-long memories. A key problem for effectiveness of such systems relate to privacy. This project aims to create the science and technology that will allow people to control their personal information and its use in pervasive computing environments.
