Location-aware computing is a technology that uses the location
(provides granular geographical information) of people and objects
to derive contextual information. Today, one can obtain this
location information free of cost through smartphones. Smartphones
with location enabled applications have revolutionized the ways in
which people perform their activities and get benefits from the
automated services. It especially helps to get details of services
in less time; wherever the user may be and whenever they want. The
need for smartphones and location enabled applications has been
growing year after year. Nowadays no one can leave without their
phone; the phone seemingly becomes one of the parts of the human
body. The individual can now be predicted by their phone and the
identity of the phone becomes the person's identity. Though there
is a tremendous need for location-enabled applications with
smartphones, the debate on privacy and security related to location
data has also been growing. Privacy and Security Challenges in
Location Aware Computing provides the latest research on privacy
enhanced location-based applications development and exposes the
necessity of location privacy preservation, as well as issues and
challenges related to protecting the location data. It also
suggests solutions for enhancing the protection of location privacy
and therefore users' privacy as well. The chapters highlight
important topic areas such as video surveillance in human
tracking/detection, geographical information system design,
cyberspace attacks and warfare, and location aware security
systems. The culmination of these topics creates a book that is
ideal for security analysts, mobile application developers,
practitioners, academicians, students, and researchers.
