Location anonymity in continuous location-based services
Proceedings of the 15th annual ACM international symposium on Advances in geographic information systems, 2007A major concern for large-scale deployment of location-based services (LBSs) is the potential abuse of their client location data, which may imply sensitive personal information. Location privacy protection is challenging because a location itself may reveal a subject's identity.

A locating method for WLAN based location service
IEEE International Conference on e-Business Engineering (ICEBE'05), 2005General wireless local area network (WLAN) based location systems use the received signal strength (RSS) as location fingerprint without any additional changes to the WLAN infrastructure. However, in real environment RSS are impacted by many factors, such as multiple path transmission (multi-path), temperature, body, etc, which harm the accuracy of ...

Location Privacy of Users in Location-based Services
2006 Third Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Networking & Services, 2006In this paper, we introduce Location Traceability as an indicator for evaluating time-series location privacy for users on location-based services (LBS). The location trace-ability of a user is calculated with a formalized tree structure that represents all possible paths of a moving user. Through the results of the simulation experiments, we validated

A predictive location model for location-based services
Proceedings of the 11th ACM international symposium on Advances in geographic information systems, 2003Location-Based Services (LBSs) utilize information about users' locations through location-aware mobile devices to provide services, such as nearest features of interest, they request. This is a common strategy in LBSs and although it is needed and benefits the users, there are additional benefits when future locations (e.g., locations at later times ...

Location-Based-Service Roaming Based on Web Services
19th International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications (AINA'05) Volume 1 (AINA papers), 2005Due to the rapid growth of personal mobile communication devices, more and more wireless mobile applications are developed. Location-based mobile application, one of the wireless mobile applications, becomes the future trend. However, the application execution environment is not complete.

Location-based services and GIS in perspective
Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, 2006This chapter examines Location Based Services (LBS) from a broad perspective involving definitions, characteristics, and application prospects. We present an overview of LBS modeling regarding users, locations, contexts and data. The LBS modeling endeavors are cross-examined with a research agenda of geographic information science.

Adaptivity in Location-Based Services
2012Location-based services have gained wide employment in the recent years. In addition to user location, the services can be adapted to the context such as user interests, preferences, personal profiles, mobile devices and time. Even the location system per se can be adaptive too, which incorporates multiple available positioning methods and returns an ...

The OCEAN-Model for Location Based Services
Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Advances in Mobile Computing & Multimedia - MoMM2017, 2017This position paper analyzes the customers' willingness to use location based services (LBS) based on the OCEAN model using particular personality traits. Companies must create suitable solutions, because certain personal characteristics may provide better attitudes for the use of LBS whereas other personal characteristics may be less conductive for ...
