Abstract

A number of context-aware systems have been developed over the last decade. However, according to the recent studies, concerns of overflowing context information have been increased. Better understanding and classification of information privacy concepts under context-aware computing environments are highly needed. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to develop the measurement criteria for information privacy in context-aware computing environments and then prioritize the criteria. Overall technology characteristics are considered to establish a mutually exclusive set of criteria which measure information privacy in context-aware computing environments in a unique and complete manner. To do so, Delphi method was adopted to obtain the reliable opinion from the experts in information privacy, as well as context-aware systems. Based on this analysis, the panels emphasize context-awareness, tracking, recording, sensors, infrastructure, and hence, they are added to our evaluation model as main criteria.
