Usability analysis of a novel biometric authentication approach for android-based mobile devices
Mobile devices are widely replacing the standard personal computers thanks to their small size and user-friendly use. As a consequence, the amount of information, often confidential, exchanged through these devices is raising. This makes them potential targets of malicious network hackers. The use of simple passwords or PIN are not sufficient to provide a suitable security level for those applications requiring high protection levels on data and services. In this paper a biometric authentication system, as a running Android application, has been developed and implemented on a real mobile device. A system test on real users has been also carried out in order to evaluate the human-machine int…
Fuzzy techniques for access and data management in home automation environments
Home Automation Environments are characterized by the integration of electronic devices as well as by the performance of communication and control systems. Environment infrastructure has to meet several requirements including Quality of Service (QoS), safety, security, and energy saving. However, Home Automation deals with complex environments, so that advanced data management systems are required to meet the above constraints. Fuzzy Logic based techniques can be successful used to improve system performance management. This work proposes and describes the use and application of fuzzy rules on a two-tiered architecture integrating a biometric authentication module and communication real-tim…
