Some practical ways of using smart mobile devices

移动的手持设备的现状及其未来发展方向都表明，它们将在物理网络和社交网络中管理个人数据方面发挥关键作用。拟议的研究计划将调查几个方面的移动的手持设备的角色作为网关和个人电脑的选择，用于管理用户之间的个人数据和物理和互联网的世界。我们解决四个挑战，在移动的手持设备的角色作为网关之间的用户和theInternet：检测和防止社交网络中私人个人信息的泄露、对等数据来源跟踪、移动终端和云之间的功率感知数据同步以及移动的应用的在线功耗监控。这些问题的解决方案将为用户提供根本上上级的智能移动的体验。该移动的用户将能够享受积极参与各种社交网络，而不必担心隐私泄露。她可以创建，贡献和消费多媒体数据，其来源和真实性可以以值得信赖的方式进行跟踪。她的移动终端也将无缝智能地与云中央存储进行数据同步，这样她在使用应用程序时就不会受到本地存储空间的限制。此外，所有这一切都得到了在线电源监控工具的支持，有助于优化电源使用并最大限度地延长电池寿命。这项研究不仅将改善加拿大和世界各地的个人智能手机的使用，而且还将影响企业和行业将与改进的移动的手持设备相关的技术应用于其商业模式的方式。

The current state of mobile handhelds and their future direction all point to the crucial role they will occupy in managing personal data in both physical and social networks. The proposed research program will investigate several aspects of the mobile handhelds' role as the gateway and the personal computer of choice for managing personal data between the user and both the physical and the inter-networked world.We address four challenges in the mobile handheld device's role as the gateway between the user and theInternet: detecting and preventing leakage of private personal information in social networks, peer-to-peer data provenance tracking, power-aware data synchronization between mobile device and cloud, and onlinepower consumption monitoring of mobile applications. The solutions to these problems will provide the user a fundamentally superior smart mobile experience. The mobile user will be able to enjoy active participation in various social networks without worrying about privacy leakage. She can create, contribute and consume multimedia data whose provenance and authenticity can be traced in a trustworthy way. Her mobile device will also seamlessly and intelligently perform data synchronization with the cloud central storage, so that she will not be limited by the local storage space in using her applications. Moreover, all this is supported by an online power monitoring tool that helps to optimize power usage and maximize battery life. This research will not only improve smart phone usage for individuals in Canada and around the world, but will also have implications in the ways that businesses and industry apply the technology associated with improved mobile hand-held devices to their business model.
