Abstract:
In this paper, a context-aware access control model is provided to be used by people with mobile devices in ubiquitous computing environments. The model utilizes a certificate-based approach and aims to create an infrastructure for regulating access requests through mobile devices to resources and services in a local environment. The model also allows users from different domains access to local resources and services within the scope of agreements between domains. In addition to conceptual design of the model, a working prototype implementation is developed and successful application of the model is demonstrated. In the prototype implementation, an application running on a real smart mobile phone is developed for generating access requests; a gateway device is utilized for context management and access control in a local ubiquitous environment with real physical sensors. Sample use cases are applied on the prototype in order to demonstrate the applicability and feasibility of the model.
