A Blockchain-Based Notarization Service for Biomedical Knowledge Retrieval
(Elsevier Ltd., 2018-08)
Biomedical research and clinical decision depend increasingly on scientific evidence realized by a number of au-thoritative databases, mostly public and continually enriched via peer scientific contributions. Given the ...
Privacy-preserving computation of participatory noise maps in the cloud
(Elsevier Ltd., 2014-06)
This paper presents a privacy-preserving system for participatory sensing, which relies on cryptographic techniques and distributed computations in the cloud. Each individual user is represented by a personal software ...
User-Centric Privacy-Preserving Statistical Analysis of Ubiquitous Health Monitoring Data
(ComSIS Consortium, 2014)
In this paper, we propose a user-centric software architecture for managing Ubiquitous Health Monitoring Data (UHMD) generated from wearable sensors in a Ubiquitous Health Monitoring System (UHMS), and examine how these ...
A query scrambler for search privacy on the internet
(Springer Link, 2012-10-09)
We propose a method for search privacy on the Internet, focusing on enhancing plausible deniability against search engine query-logs. The method approximates the target search results, without submitting the intended query ...
An efficient privacy-preserving solution for finding the nearest doctor
(Personal and Ubiquitous Computing volume, 2012-10-30)
In this work, we define the Nearest Doctor Problem for finding the nearest doctor in case of an emergency and present a privacy-preserving protocol for solving it. The solution is based on cryptographic primitives and makes ...
A Privacy-by-Design Contextual Suggestion System for Tourism
(MDPI, 2016-05-05)
We focus on personal data generated by the sensors and through the everyday usage of smart devices and take advantage of these data to build a non-invasive contextual suggestion system for tourism. The system, which we ...
Versatile Query Scrambling for Private Web Search
(Springer Link, 2015-05-16)
We consider the problem of privacy leaks suffered by Internet users when they perform web searches, and propose a framework to mitigate them. In brief, given a ‘sensitive’ search query, the objective of our work is to ...
Privacy-Enhanced Television Audience Measurements
(2017-02)
Internet-enabled television systems (SmartTVs) are a development that introduces these devices into the interconnected environment of the Internet of Things. We propose a privacy-preserving application for computing ...
Pythia: A Privacy-enhanced Personalized Contextual Suggestion System for Tourism
(COMPSAC, 2015-07)
We present Pythia, a privacy-enhanced non-invasive contextual suggestion system for tourists, with important architectural innovations. The system offers high quality personalized recommendations, non-invasive operation ...
Communicating Personalized Risk Factors for Lifestyle Coaching
(2018)
Chronic non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, chronic cardiorenal and respiratory disease and cancer, are serious, burdensome and costly conditions that share a common characteristic: they heavily depend on common ...
