This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). Significant progress has been made on technical solutions for implementing security while preserving varying degrees of privacy for mobile electronic devices. A largely unsolved problem involves knowing what type of technical solutions to implement and under what circumstances. This challenge arises because in actuality there is in general no such thing as a clear "optimal" or "right" solution. One way to view this problem is by focusing on the fact that such devices potentially play an integral role in people's lives and impact important human values: security and privacy of course, but also other values such as autonomy, trust, and physical well-being. Further, these values are often in tension. This project will develop a principled and systematic conceptual framework for analyzing these value implications and tensions in the context of two archetypical examples of future mobile devices: implantable medical devices and mobile phone safety applications. A key component of our approach will be the application and extension of the Value Sensitive Design theory and methodology. Researchers will develop and evaluate new technology, as well as undertake empirical work with a range of stakeholders, including Futures Workshops and semi-structured interviews. Expected outcomes include a framework for analyzing the relationships and trade-offs among privacy, security, autonomy, and other values for mobile devices that accounts for both situational and embodied dimensions of these values; a pallet of key technical solutions to these problems; a set of case studies; and finally design recommendations for use by other researchers and practitioners. Results of this work will not only develop technical mechanisms for providing the "right" level of security and privacy for new mobile technologies, but can help influence the definition of what "right" means in the context of the broader set of goals and values. In society more generally, there is an increasing use of technologies that are focused upon here: implantable medical devices and highly capable cell phones used for personal safety. Improving human health and personal safety, while not significantly undermining other key values such as privacy, trust, and autonomy, will be important in the development of such technologies. It is anticipated that the ways of analyzing such problems will be applicable to other technologies as well, such as RFID tags on personal possessions, Smart Cards for paying for tolls or transit fares, and many others.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。在为移动的电子设备实现安全性的同时保持不同程度的隐私的技术解决方案方面已经取得了重大进展。一个很大程度上尚未解决的问题是，要知道在什么情况下实施什么类型的技术解决方案。这一挑战之所以出现，是因为实际上通常没有明确的“最佳”或“正确”解决方案。看待这个问题的一种方法是关注这样一个事实，即这些设备可能在人们的生活中发挥不可或缺的作用，并影响重要的人类价值观：当然是安全和隐私，但也包括其他价值观，如自主权，信任和身体健康。此外，这些价值观往往处于紧张状态。该项目将开发一个原则性和系统性的概念框架，用于分析未来移动的设备的两个典型示例（植入式医疗设备和移动的手机安全应用）背景下的这些价值含义和张力。我们的方法的一个关键组成部分将是价值敏感设计理论和方法的应用和扩展。研究人员将开发和评估新技术，并与一系列利益相关者开展实证工作，包括未来研讨会和半结构化访谈。预期成果包括一个框架，用于分析隐私，安全，自主权和其他价值观的移动的设备，占这些价值观的情境和具体尺寸之间的关系和权衡;托盘的关键技术解决方案，这些问题;一组案例研究;并最终设计建议供其他研究人员和从业人员使用。这项工作的成果不仅将开发技术机制，为新的移动的技术提供“正确”的安全和隐私水平，而且可以帮助影响在更广泛的目标和价值观背景下“正确”的定义。在社会中，越来越多地使用这里所关注的技术：植入式医疗设备和用于个人安全的高性能手机。改善人类健康和人身安全，同时不严重损害其他关键价值，如隐私，信任和自主权，将是发展这些技术的重要因素。预计分析这些问题的方法也将适用于其他技术，例如个人物品上的RFID标签，用于支付通行费或过境费的智能卡等。
