Link Before You Share: Managing Privacy Policies through Blockchain
With the advent of numerous online content providers, utilities and
applications, each with their own specific version of privacy policies and its
associated overhead, it is becoming increasingly difficult for concerned users
to manage and track the confidential information that they share with the
providers. Users consent to providers to gather and share their Personally
Identifiable Information (PII). We have developed a novel framework to
automatically track details about how a users' PII data is stored, used and
shared by the provider. We have integrated our Data Privacy ontology with the
properties of blockchain, to develop an automated access control and audit
mechanism that enforces users' data privacy policies when sharing their data
across third parties. We have also validated this framework by implementing a
working system LinkShare. In this paper, we describe our framework on detail
along with the LinkShare system. Our approach can be adopted by Big Data users
to automatically apply their privacy policy on data operations and track the
flow of that data across various stakeholders.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures, Published in: 4th International Workshop on

Practices of Using Blockchain Technology in ICT under the Digitalization of the World Economy
Abstract. Pursuing the purpose of effective functioning in today's conditions, the business is forced to transform rapidly, to modernize at all levels. The world
is changing, erasing the limits of its certainty. Companies need quality transformations and strategies that are effective in the face of rapid change towards
"deep" digitization. Massive corporate management systems increasingly need the flexibility to keep pace with change. And companies with an innovative culture
are more in need of creative tasks than implementing detailed regulations.
In the post-industrial time of digital economy, issues related to the development
of the information sphere, the media and communications, the usage of modern
information systems to develop the economy and stabilize social development
as a whole, come first. The basic principles of practical application of Blockchain
are investigated in the work. The stages of development of Blockchain
technology, the stages of development of Blockchain technologies by time, the
application of distributed registry technology in Blockchain applications, the
principles of construction and operation of Blockchain have been specified. The
benefits of using NEM for business are substantiated and the components of
Proxima X technology, protocols and service layers, on-line and off-line protocols,
decentralized applications are exposed
Internet of robotic things : converging sensing/actuating, hypoconnectivity, artificial intelligence and IoT Platforms
The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is evolving rapidly and influencing newdevelopments in various application domains, such as the Internet of MobileThings (IoMT), Autonomous Internet of Things (A-IoT), Autonomous Systemof Things (ASoT), Internet of Autonomous Things (IoAT), Internetof Things Clouds (IoT-C) and the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) etc.that are progressing/advancing by using IoT technology. The IoT influencerepresents new development and deployment challenges in different areassuch as seamless platform integration, context based cognitive network integration,new mobile sensor/actuator network paradigms, things identification(addressing, naming in IoT) and dynamic things discoverability and manyothers. The IoRT represents new convergence challenges and their need to be addressed, in one side the programmability and the communication ofmultiple heterogeneous mobile/autonomous/robotic things for cooperating,their coordination, configuration, exchange of information, security, safetyand protection. Developments in IoT heterogeneous parallel processing/communication and dynamic systems based on parallelism and concurrencyrequire new ideas for integrating the intelligent “devices”, collaborativerobots (COBOTS), into IoT applications. Dynamic maintainability, selfhealing,self-repair of resources, changing resource state, (re-) configurationand context based IoT systems for service implementation and integrationwith IoT network service composition are of paramount importance whennew “cognitive devices” are becoming active participants in IoT applications.This chapter aims to be an overview of the IoRT concept, technologies,architectures and applications and to provide a comprehensive coverage offuture challenges, developments and applications
