Advances ensuring Data Integrity in ambient intelligence

The Introduction of the Special Issue

Data integrity is the maintenance and assurance of data accuracy and consistency and is a critical aspect of designing, implementing and using any system storing processing or retrieving data. Furthermore, ambient intelligence refers to electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. The ambient intelligence paradigm builds upon pervasive computing, ubiquitous computing, profiling, context awareness, and human-centric computer interaction design.

In such environments, there is indeed a great deal of data coming from multiple users and interactions and as such data handling and management plays a crucial role in order to ensure integrity, privacy and security. To this direction, this special issue welcomes papers presenting advances in view of ensuring data integrity in ambient intelligence.
