Networked RFID Systems and Lightweight Cryptography : Raising Barriers to Product Counterfeiting
This book considers the methods used by illicit manufactures and traders to introduce counterfeit goods into the supply chain, the extent of their success, the various barriers that may be brought against their actions, and the effectiveness of those barriers. The new field of lightweight cryptography is described in the context of using RFID systems in the fight against counterfeit products, its cost effectiveness is examined and feasible approaches to its deployment are described. Research problems and likely avenues for solutions are also presented to guide a global effort in anti-counterfeiting.
Networked RFID : Systems, Software and Services
Begins with a quick introduction to RFID basics and then discusses the various elements of the topic, using applications such as e-passports, ticketing and supply-chain management throughout. The text explores RFID technology fundamentals, including operating principles, core system components and performance trade-offs involved in the selection of specific RFID platforms. The emphasis is on a practical approach, developing an arsenal of techniques and designs that can be mixed and matched to fit the needs of new systems and applications.

Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing - EUC 2005 Workshops ; EUC 2005 Workshops : UISW, NCUS, SecUbiq, USN, and TAUES, Nagasaki, Japan, December 8-9, 2005
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the EUC 2005 workshops held in conjunction with the IFIP International Conference on Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing, EUC 2005, in Nagasaki, Japan in December 2005.The 132 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 352 submissions. Topics covered by the five workshops are ubiquitous intelligence and smart worlds (UISW 2005), network-centric ubiquitous systems (NCUS 2005), security in ubiquitous computing systems (SecUbiq 2005), RFID and ubiquitous sensor networks (USN 2005), and trusted and autonomic ubiquitous and embedded systems (TAUES 2005).
Developing Ambient Intelligence ; Proceedings of the First International Conference on Ambient Intelligence Developments (AmID'06)
As Ambient Intelligence (AmI) ecosystems are rapidly becoming a reality, they raise new research challenges. Unlike predefined static architectures as we know them today, AmI ecosystems are bound to contain a large number of heterogeneous computing, communication infrastructures and devices that will be dynamically assembled. Architectures will be sensitive, adaptive, context-aware and responsive to users‚ needs and habits.Researchers need to both enable their user-friendly application in a growing number of areas while ensuring that these applications remain reliable and secure. Held in Sophia Antipolis (France) from September the 20th to September the 22nd 2006, the first edition of the AmI.d conference tackled the latest research challenges within AmI ecosystems, presented AmI applications as well as security solutions.
Legal Programming : Designing Legally Compliant RFID and Software Agent Architectures for Retail Processes and Beyond
LEGAL PROGRAMMING: Designing Legally Compliant RFID and Software Agent Architectures for Retail Processes and Beyond provides a process-oriented discussion of the legal concerns presented by agent-based technologies, processes and programming. It offers a general outline of the potential legal difficulties that could arise in relation to them, focusing on the programming of negotiation and contracting processes in a privacy, consumer and commercial context. The authors will elucidate how it is possible to create form of legal framework and design methodology for transaction agents, applicable in any environment and not just in a specific proprietary framework, that provides the right level of compliance and trust. Key elements considered include the design and programming of legally compliant methods, the determination of rights in respect of objects and variables, and ontologies and programming frameworks for agent interactions. Examples are used to illustrate the points made and provide a practical perspective.
