Safety-critical applications in cooperative vehicular networks require authentication of nodes
and messages. Yet, privacy of individual vehicles and drivers must be maintained …

With the advancement in communication techniques and sensor technologies, mobile
crowdsensing (MCS)—one of the most successful applications of crowdsourcing—has …

It is a well-known fact that the progress of personal communication devices leads to serious
concerns about privacy in general, and location privacy in particular. As a response to these …

The growing need of the driving public for accurate traffic information has spurred the
deployment of large scale dedicated monitoring infrastructure systems, which mainly consist …

The mainstream approach to protecting the location-privacy of mobile users in location-
based services (LBSs) is to alter the users' actual locations in order to reduce the location …

Traffic delays and congestion are a major source of inefficiency, wasted fuel, and commuter
frustration. Measuring and localizing these delays, and routing users around them, is an …

Today's smartphones are shipped with various embedded motion sensors, such as the
accelerometer, gyroscope, and orientation sensors. These motion sensors are useful in …

This is a literature survey of computational location privacy, meaning computation-based
privacy mechanisms that treat location data as geometric information. This definition …

Although the privacy threats and countermeasures associated with location data are well
known, there has not been a thorough experiment to assess the effectiveness of either. We …

While traffic signals are necessary to safely control competing flows of traffic, they inevitably
enforce a stop-and-go movement pattern that increases fuel consumption, reduces traffic …
