Abstract:

In this paper, the authors have addressed the issue of preserving user privacy in Location Based Services provisioning. This issue includes two controversial requirements, namely the protection of user’s location privacy, and the Location Based Services QoS. In this context, the authors propose a framework that implements a non-irreversible algorithm, meaning that the authors cannot discover user’s exact position based on provided services. The proposed algorithm has been implemented and integrated in a mobile services framework based on Microsoft’s Virtual Earth platform.
